Douglas S. Hawkins, MD

Dr. Hawkins is a professional, kind and caring doctor with a large expertise in treating childhood cancer. Upon our orientation at Children's, he was the key person that explained the medicines, treatment plan, schedule and expectations. He explained differences in treatment plans in Europe and North America. He presented our scans, biopsy and test results making sure that we understood everything. He has done a good job and our son is now cured of cancer. Thank you Dr. Hawkins and the expert staff at Seattle Children's!

Dr. Hawkins and his incredible team saved out daughters life. Dr. Hawkins had the insight to look past the original diagnosis given to our daughter. She was diagnosed with TEC at 15 months with a HCT of 7. This was not life sustaining. He and his team consulted, worked, planned and communitcated with each other and our family to come up with the best course of treatment. I cant thank Dr. Hawkins and Seattle Children's enough. They preform miracles everyday!

Dr. Hawkins works around the clock to give our children the best care. I am happy to say my son is a bone cancer survivor. I appreciated how Dr. Hawkins worked to make sure the side affects from the chemo where addressed as well as its progress. Thank you so much, Janice B.

Dr. Hawkins saved my daughters life,who was diagnosed with stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma last year.My daughter is cancer free for almost three months now because of Dr. Hawkins and his team.God bless them.God is Good.

I was a distraught parent when my daughter was diagnosed at 15 with Hodgkin's lymphoma. he spent the time to make me feel at ease and encouraged me to participate in her care . i didn't have a clue what i should do . he made me feel comfortable to ask a lot of questions, and he answered with reassurance and calmness . He worked closely with me as a parent as well as his colleagues to give her the best care she could get. he responded as quickly as possible to all of my phone calls. He is a very humble man for all of his qualifications . there are a lot of people who look up to him , if he only knew how many .... many thanks!! we pray for his continued success!!

Five years ago, my 8 1/2 year old son was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. I remember Dr Hawkins looking me right in the eye and saying, "This cancer is very, very, VERY curable." I clung to his words, and today we are celebrating my son's 14th birthday. Thank you Dr. Hawkins, and Children's, for assisting God in our son's healing!

If you are seeing Dr. Hawkins, you've likely heard the worst thing you will ever hear: your child has cancer. If that's the case, thank God you're seeing Dr. Hawkins! My son nearly died before he was diagnosed in 1997 at age 2 with Burkitt's Lymphoma. We were so grateful to have Dr. Hawkins on his team. He's honest, clear, compassionate and simply the most knowledgeable physician treating kids today. My son is 16 now, rowing crew and making the honor roll!

Dr. Hawkins is my personal Hero! I was two weeks short of dying when he took over. I had stage 4 hodgkins lymphoma I was 15 yrs old. I am now 20 and I have a beautiful son and have been in remisson for 5 yrs now. Thank you Dr. Hawkins!

Dr. Doug Hawkins and Dr. Lawrence Cooper diagnosed our son Eric as a Lg Cell Lymphoma patient in early 1997 when he was 10. Eric recently had his 24th Birthday, THANKS TO THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND CARE. He is a SURVIVOR!! Thank you to them and all the wonderful nurses that made that hard time bearable. Sincerely, Eric's Mom & Dad
