It is with both joy and sadness that we announce the upcoming retirement of Suetta Williamson, the “Voice of Georgetown Pediatrics” for the past 21 years.  As our receptionist, Suetta was likely the first person you spoke to in our office.  Her warm and cheerful attitude and her ability to make people feel welcome have been the essence of her work.  Suetta’s calm voice is just what a parent needs to hear when a child is sick.  These wonderful personal qualities make her leaving particularly hard for us.

Our joy is in knowing that Suetta is now beginning the next portion of her life’s journey.  She’ll have more time for family, especially her grandchildren; she can spend more time in the garden and pursue all those things she has put off for the last two decades.

Suetta’s official retirement date will be October 21, exactly 21 years from the day she was hired!  She has been a huge part of the success of Georgetown Pediatrics.  We know you will join with us in wishing her well even as we recognize how much she will be missed.  In the words of Dr. Hambrick:  “Go well, stay well, come back well.”
