Clinics will both be closed Christmas Day
only and will resume their normal business
hours after the holiday.

New Issue of INSIGHT Magazine
The latest issue of “Insight,” our magazine produced by
Wheelhouse Publishing, is in the mail and will be located
at our hospital, clinics, and multiple local businesses
this week! This issue highlights some of the advanced
procedures and technology being used at our Heart and
Lung Center, including intravascular ultrasound and
bronchoscopic lung reduction valves, which allows our
cardiologists and pulmonologists to diagnose and treat
heart and lung conditions with incredible precision.
You’ll also learn more about our Stryker Spinal
Navigational System, which board-certified orthopedic
and spine surgeon Dr. Troy Caron uses to help our
patients overcome back pain. Our pharmacy is also
making strides in using technology to better serve our
patients with the use of a mobile app and plans in place
for medical synchronization.
There are plenty of heartfelt stories in this issue, such
as that of two of our chaplains, who not only share a
last name, but also a love for compassion and healing. If
you are not able to pick up a hard copy of this issue, you
can view a digital version at https://bit.ly/3EblBMZ. We
hope you enjoy reading
