Congratulations, Sam Summers
Sam Summers, MD
We had a wonderful turnout January 18 for the retirement party of Dr. Sam Summers. It was amazing to see some of our retired physicians come out for this event, but also some of the residents that Dr. Summers impacted over the years. There were a lot of stories, laughter, and love for one amazing man. We will miss his sense of humor, his insights, and his excellence in patient care. Dr. Summers was responsible for the initiation of the Caldwell Rural Training Track with Family Medicine Residency of Idaho. Bringing that training program to West Valley transformed our medical staff and our community. It elevated West Valley and helped us become the high-quality institution we are today. We are grateful for all Dr. Summers has done for West Valley and our Caldwell community. We will miss him terribly and know it will not be the same without him. After 35 years, we congratulate Dr. Sam Summers on his retirement!
