Doris Tuftee, RN

Doris retired from CCPM&R at the end of 2022. We miss her, and wish the best for her and her loved ones.

Doris and Dr. Chin worked together for more than 20 years, caring for a wide range of patients, and supporting their caregivers. Doris built many bridges for the benefit of the Quad Cities community in helping those in need to connect them with those who could provide them with assistance. Fellow nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech language pathologists, orthotists, prosthetists, social workers, case managers, and office assistants were able to help so many people in connecting with Doris.

Doris provided tremendous dedication and devotion to the patients of this practice and the Quad Cities region. She gave heartfelt advice and direction to her patients and their caregivers. Doris has helped so many people recover from their severe ilnesses and injuries, and return to a more indepedendent and rewarding life.

Doris grew up on a farm near Bellevue, Iowa, and moved to Davenport, Iowa after high school to attend Marycrest College, where she earned a bachelor of science degree in nursing. She then began working at Mercy Hospital in Davenport which eventually became Genesis Health System. Doris left Genesis in May of 2020 after over 30 years of service.

Doris and her husband Randy live in the Quad Cities area, and have two grown sons, Mike and Mitchel.

Doris enjoys going for drives around the Iowa/Illinois area with her family, and going for walks with Addy, the family dog.
