Summary
- To my valued Parents / Caretakers /Patients and Colleagues:
It is with mixed emotions that I announce my retirement from
active practice, effective 06/16/2023. It has been a great pleasure
providing for your health care needs over the years, and it is not
easy for me to give it up. I’ve had the honor of being entrusted with
the cardiac care of a fantastic group of people, and I hope I’ve
helped.
With great respect and affection and Best wishes for your future
health.
Sincerely,
“Dr. Sam”’ Somkiat Sopontammarak, MD, FACC, FAAP.
