Liz Sokolowski MD is a Hospice and Palliative Medicine Fellow at Duke University. She completed psychiatry residency and medical school training at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). She earned her Bachelor of Science in chemical engineering from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Prior to medical training, she completed a 13-year engineering career at Hewlett-Packard where she led numerous quality and safety initiatives spanning the 5,000-person organization. One of her projects resulted in annual cost savings of $25M. Her passion for motivating organizational change has translated into the clinical environment where she participated on the OHSU House Officers Quality & Safety Committee. She led multiple improvement projects including expanding curriculum opportunities for residents with the creation of a novel group psychotherapy clinic for Long COVID patients, incorporating exploration of the effects of racism and discrimination on patient health at an outpatient resident clinic, and improving acute peripartum psychiatric care in her role as chief resident at Unity Behavioral Health. In addition to healthcare system improvement, her interests lie in treating patients with history of trauma and those suffering from chronic and life-limiting illness.
