With your vote, please help elect Dr. Robert McFarland to the Kootenai Hospital District Board of Trustees.

When I was the Kootenai Medical Center’s CEO for 30 years, I came to know Bob as an excellent physician, a leader among his peers and someone so ethical and articulate that he would be a valued member of any board. It is very significant when your peers, who know you best, elect you to a leadership position. Bob was elected by the hospital physicians as their Chief of Staff and by the physicians of Idaho to be the President of the Idaho Medical Association and President of the Idaho Academy of Family Physicians.

I know Bob will be an incredible board member and serve the patients and the entire community in that role. He has great values, character and experience serving on various boards. He has demonstrated that he is an objective problem solver. He also understands the unique, complex financial requirements of health care organizations.

Bob is a critical thinker who will prepare and ask penetrating questions at board meetings and help guide Kootenai Health during these challenging times. Please elect Bob McFarland to the Kootenai Hospital District Board of Trustees.
