“While the pandemic highlighted the critical role California’s hospitals played in a challenging time, it also underscored our long record of setting high standards of providing paramount health care for the individual well-being of patients.”
At Valley Children’s, Suntrapak leads a team of 640 physicians, 3,500 staff, and nearly 800 volunteers and guild members
