"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Deb for the last nine months and can attest to her tremendous value to our organization.  She has worked effectively with individual providers, managers and employees, with teams, clinics and departments, and with senior leadership.  She is highly skilled and brings great results."
— John Ford, MD, Medical Director of Innovation and Care Transformation, Oregon Medical Group

"Deb is an invaluable resource and asset to whomever she works with, whether it’s a clinical staff member, care team, or provider. She has a thoughtful and logical approach to help build camaraderie, provide lean methods to improve efficiencies, and open up the bridge for communication to promote teamwork. She is a great person to work with and is a reliable person to lean on when there are challenging problems to solve and you need fresh ideas for a new strategy. She isn’t afraid to provide new creative approaches to challenging situations and has been someone that I’ve admired for her suggestions, solutions, and diplomatic way of trying to do the right thing with the current limited resources at hand."
— Lily Yip, PharmD, APh, CDE, BCACP | Director of Clinical Pharmacy Operations and Patient Education

“As a new Chief Executive Officer of one of the largest CDCs in Oregon I am interested in nurturing a culture of respect and understanding. Deb Williams facilitated a one day retreat with our leadership team which helped us to open ourselves and understand each one of our needs, desires and even fears. Needless to say, this work has allowed our leadership team to be more open, more empathetic and ultimately, to be happier and more productive.”
— Ernesto Fonseca, PhD, Chief Executive Officer, Hacienda CDC
