Dr. Jonathan Ilgen

Dr. Jonathan Ilgen graduated from University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine, then traveled to Boston to complete his residency training at the Harvard Affiliated Emergency Medicine training program at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham & Women’s Hospital. Following his chief resident year, he completed a Medical Education Research Fellowship at Oregon Health & Science University before joining in the UW faculty in 2010. He has been a College Faculty member since 2011. He works clinically in the Harborview Medical Center Emergency Department, and also serves as the Vice Chair for Faculty Development & Education in the Department of Emergency Medicine. He loves teaching clinical reasoning, and is perpetually amazed by the growth of these skills in his mentees during their four years of medical school. His wife Ann is a nurse in the Seattle Public School system; in their free time, they love traveling and exploring the Pacific Northwest with their two daughters.
