Jillian Collier, MD

Dr. Jill Collier demonstrated exceptional leadership and collaboration while managing a highly complex case on the consult service. Working closely with her peers, she helped coordinate a challenging treatment plan that involved facilitating a procedure in an atypical setting—an impressive achievement requiring cross-service coordination and creative problem-solving. She also played a key role in securing weekend staffing, going above and beyond to ensure continuity of care in a setting where elective procedures are rarely performed during that time. In addition to her clinical efforts, Dr. Collier provided strong support and guidance to a neurology resident, demonstrating outstanding mentorship and professionalism throughout.
