Dear RHJ Community,
I want to take a moment to express my deepest appreciation for the trust and kindness you have shown me during my time at this practice. It has been a true privilege to be a part of your health journey and to support you through many meaningful seasons of your lives.
After careful consideration, I have decided to pursue a new path and will be departing from the practice. While I am looking forward to what the future brings, this decision was not easy. I will always be deeply grateful for the experiences we’ve shared over the last several years. I know that you will continue to be intentionally cared for by my wonderful colleagues.
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your obstetric and gynecology care as it has truly been an honor. I wish you all the best in health and happiness moving forward.
Warmest Regards,
Ciara Perkins DNP, WHNP-BC
