AFTER 22 YEARS AT WFIMP, we celebrated Dr. Warnimont’s last day this past Friday.

🩺🎉 After years of managing blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, annual physicals, medication lists that were somehow three pages long, and answering the question “While I’m here, can I ask you one more thing?”…

It’s finally time for your next treatment plan:

Diagnosis: Retirement
Prognosis: Excellent

Orders:

* No more inbox messages
* No prior authorizations
* No charting after hours
* No squeezing in “just one more patient”
* Unlimited vacations, naps, and hobbies

Thank you for the care, wisdom, patience, and countless lives you’ve impacted over the years. Your office family will miss your steady presence, your expertise, and probably your ability to handle the schedule when it went completely off the rails.

Side effects of retirement may include: sleeping in, spontaneous travel, reduced stress levels, and an inability to remember your Epic password. 😄

Congratulations on retirement Dr. Warnimont; your team and your patients will miss you beyond measure.
