Reflecting on the importance of peer references, Dr. Marty Trott commented, “For more than eight years, I have known Jeff as a trusted partner in the care of our shared patients. He is an advocate for excellent patient care and partnerships that support collegial interactions and seamless coordination of care. We are very fortunate to have attracted a candidate from a regional tertiary referral center who may understand certain aspects of our patients’ medical needs even better than we do.” Echoing this sentiment, Dr. Jim Little, Jr., said, “Jeff Sollis is a known leader joining the St. John’s team. Because of his longstanding relationship with St. John’s, Jeff has great insight into the issues facing St. John’s and to the unique needs of our community.”

As Jeff explained during the recruitment process, the move for him is a very personal one. As an avid recreationalist, he has long loved the valley and the community and is motivated by a strong desire to serve the community’s healthcare needs through Teton County’s independent hospital. Jeff and his wife, Rachel, own a home in Victor, ID. Rachel’s background is in elementary education, and she intends to do that same work in Jackson or Teton Valley, ID.
