Copley Hospital is pleased to welcome Dr. Jennifer Peters. Dr. Peters joins the hospital’s medical staff as Director of the Hospitalist Program. She brings 10 years of experience as a Hospitalist coming most recently from Jordan Hospital in Plymouth Massachusetts.
“Copley has a fantastic staff. From my first day at the hospital I’ve been impressed with the quality of care provided. I look forward to providing the same quality care as well as ensuring each patient has the best possible Copley experience,” says Dr. Peters.
A graduate of Middlebury College, Dr. Peters received her medical degree from the University of Utah School of Medicine. She completed her internship and residency in Internal Medicine at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center.
“We are delighted to have Dr. Peters as part of our medical community. She’s been instrumental in developing Copley’s Hospitalist program, working with physicians throughout our community,” states Mel Patashnick, President of Copley Hospital.
Copley’s Hospitalists are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to care for patients that are hospitalized. They are specialists in Internal Medicine and are skilled in the latest inpatient diagnostics and treatments. Hospitalists work closely with the patient’s primary care physician and coordinate care with nursing staff and other in-hospital care providers such as physical therapy, laboratory, dieticians and patient and family services. They are available to respond quickly to any changes in your medical condition, provide timely updates resulting medical tests, and meet with your family.
Patashnick explained that the program was requested by a number of family practitioners in the community. “The Hospitalist program benefits more than our inpatients; it extends into the greater community as it enables primary care providers to spend more time in their clinics, increasing access to care for everyone.”
Dr. Peters and her family have lived in Vermont since 1997. She, her husband and two children recently relocated to Stowe. She and her family enjoy the outdoors and have special interests in hiking, biking and skiing.
