Dr. Richard Katz and Denise Pudinski

After more than 60 years of combined service to Mt. Washington Pediatric Hospital (MWPH), two of our esteemed leaders - Chief Medical Officer and Vice President of Medical Affairs Richard Katz, MD, MBA, FAAP, and Vice President of Patient Care Services and Chief Nurse Executive Denise Pudinski, MSHCA, BSN, RN, CCM, NE-BC – will be retiring this Fall.

These two outstanding professionals have been instrumental in our hospital’s evolution from a long-term nursing facility for children to the state-of-the-art, pediatric post-intensive care and multidisciplinary rehabilitation center of excellence it is today.

Please join us in demonstrating the community’s gratitude for their extraordinary commitment to our hospital by making a gift in their honor.
