In honor of Doctors’ Day, we’re shining a spotlight on this remarkable team of medical professionals! Dr. Ken Baker and Dr. Bevin Weeks are not only talented doctors, but also a married couple that both work for Nemours Children’s Health.
When they were younger, both Dr. Baker and Dr. Weeks had positions working at Yale. While the Pediatric Cardiology Echo Lab and Pediatric Radiology reading room were located along the same hallway, they hadn’t actually met until a mutual colleague decided to introduce them. “Fun fact,” says Dr. Weeks, “This was back in the days when Dr. Moss also worked at Yale and it was his PA who was the mutual colleague!”
In late 2019, the couple realized that Pensacola was home for them and made the decision to move back to Pensacola, FL. Dr. Weeks and Dr. Baker knew that they wanted to be part of Nemours and the outstanding care the enterprise provides to the kids of Florida.
Several years ago, before they worked at Nemours, their youngest child needed a procedure semi-urgently. “The way the team at NCH worked to put everything together for us quickly and the compassionate, skilled care he received left a lasting impression,” says Dr. Weeks. “We are so happy to now be part of an organization that offers that kind of experience to patients and families.”
“As physicians who specialize in caring for children and as parents, we love working for an organization that has the health and well-being of children as its fundamental goal and task. The team environment both within our local Pensacola clinic and across the sites makes working to reach that goal a pleasure.”
