Our team manages media relations for UW Medicine, including the University of Washington School of Medicine.
We respond to journalists’ requests for interviews with topic experts and spokespersons, background information, fact-checking, patient-condition reports, records requests, filming access, official statements and disaster communications.
We handle media requests for all UW Medicine entities: the UW School of Medicine and its research centers and education programs, Harborview Medical Center, UW Medical Center (Montlake and Northwest campuses), Valley Medical Center, Airlift Northwest, the UW Neighborhood Clinics, and UW Physicians.
