Information
Most people would be hard-pressed to put their philosophy of life into a few words. But for Rachel Locker, it's as simple-and as profound-as this: "Let's see what we can find out." She has an innate love of discovery that she brings both to her practice, and her life outside the hospital.
Rachel thoroughly enjoys exploring the outdoors through hiking, biking, backpacking and skiing. Closer to home, she likes to spend her free time gardening or, as she says, "creating something through cooking or sewing." Rachel and her husband James particularly enjoy cooking together, making special meals for their family and friends.
"It's important to explain illness and medication on the patient's level, and avoid technical terms they might not understand. I want my patients to know I'm human, too. If I don't know something, I tell them. I'll say, 'Let's see what we can find out." - Rachel Locker, MD
