PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — It is a hectic afternoon at Metropolitan Pediatrics on the edge of Southeast Portland and Clackamas County.
The newest doctor in the practice is getting busier by the minute.
Thirty-year-old Dr. Megan Wills Kullnat — four months on the job — scans her laptop screen. A colored-coded system tells her who is waiting to be seen and who is with her medical assistant. In a flash, two more patients pop up on the calendar.
If ever there was a person destined to enter this busy, demanding job, it’s the athletic young woman wearing a polka dot maternity blouse and a stethoscope. Her father is a physician, as was her grandfather and great-grandfather.
