Sasha Hull – Board Certified PNP-PC/PMHS
Sasha grew up on woody acreage in Woodinville, Washington on a lane named Little Bear Creek Road - get it?
​
A year-round stream flowed through the property, which was flush with artesian spring water and five ponds complete with fish, eels, and frogs. Sasha spent her childhood roaming forests and gardens, jumping from trees via rope swings, building secret forts in the forest, and picking wild huckleberries. She often exited her high tree fort via zip line. Had there been an American Ninja Warrior TV show at that time, she would have enrolled.
​
Sasha has three children and enjoys biking, traveling, gardening, and reading. In fact, roaming the library to bring home an armload of books might be one of her favorite self-care activities! Sasha is always open to giving book recommendations for kids of any age. Just ask!
​
She’s known since her time at Seattle Children’s Hospital that working with children was her passion. Sasha strives to provide excellent healthcare guidance and treatment for children and families.

Meet Our Staff
April LaMont
Office Manager/Receptionist
April was born in Spokane but moved around a little bit as a child. She has lived in Oregon, Alaska, and multiple small towns in Western Washington. When she was twelve, her family moved back to Spokane, and she’s been here ever since. She is the proud Mom of FIVE boys, ranging in age from 27 to 16, and often says she was just meant to be a “Boy Mom”. She also has two granddaughters, whom she absolutely adores.
April started at the Front Desk and is now our Office Manager – however, you’ll still find her at the Front Desk a few days a week. She had previously worked in the Veterinarian field, and decided she was ready for a change. And that’s when she found us! When asked what she likes best about being at Bear Creek Pediatrics, she says she loves absolutely EVERYTHING.
Some fun facts about April:
​
-
Her favorite place to be is relaxing in the woods around a campfire or floating in one of our amazing lakes. Camping = 💕
​
-
She has a weakness for a perfectly baked chocolate chip cookie or gooey brownies.
​
-
She loves to sing Karaoke!
April lives in Spokane Valley with her spouse, Robbie, and her three youngest children - all teenagers! She also has four cats, two dogs, and two turtles. In her free time, she can be found watching movies, hanging out at one of the many lakes in our area, singing karaoke, and spending time with the people she loves.
