Not sure what to say?

I miss his care so very much. I'm sure I will never have the Dr. comfort he always gave me.

When I was in search of a new Primary Care Physician I was told by many people (including my new PCP) that I was not going to find another Dr. Skoglund - that he was the best and he was the one the other doctors went to. I still miss him greatly.

He is missed so very much......I still feel lost with out his care.


I am sorry for your loss. It is always hard to lose a loved one in death. Our heavenly Father is very aware and understands the pain you feel. He will give you comfort. (Psalms 86:6,7) Your family has my deepest sympathy.

Dr. Skoglund served three generations of my family. He became the doctor of my mother and father shortly after he completed medical school and set up practice at three tree medical. A few years later I completed college, and then he became my doctor as well until I moved out of state. And bless his heart, even though he was no longer accepting new patients, he agreed to take on my son just a year ago when my son moved to Burien.
We will always remember him for his intelligence, his...

I want to say that Dr. Skoglund was the best endocrinologist I've ever had. He was such a blessing in my life. He was kind with a wonderful bedside manner and helped me when no others really seemed to care. I was extremely kind to me while under his care and he got me hooked up with an insulin pump in no time. I always enjoyed my time with him and how much time he spent in our appointments. I was so grieved to hear of his passing and my condolences to all of his family. I know you will miss...

I only saw this incredible Doctor one time , I was sent to him to rule out possible conditions by my primary . And I felt so comfortable there , loved everything about that visit . He was the kindest most amazing Doctor ( and I have had many ) I have ever met . He just had a way with people I guess even just meeting them .

I had only met Dr. Skoglund six weeks prior to his passing. Directed to him in an emergency situation with out of control blood sugars.

With his help we brought them under better control and on my last appointment with him two weeks prior to his passing he said, "Young lady, today you are my Rock Star" From an A1C of 14 to 8.1 in such a short time was not accomplished by just me. He was good at what he did. :-)

He was such a kind and gentle soul, concerned SO much about...
