Patient Story

Below is a short story of how our team values and celebrates the success of each one of our patients:

We have a patient who has been under our care since November of last year and has been here regularly for treatments. The treatment he received caused the patient to see green when he woke up which can be a side effect. Medical Assistant Laurie Roberge and Dr. Dhami came up with the idea to have our ECHO team wear green and brought in a cake for the patient to celebrate his successful end of treatment. The cake stated, “When You See Green, Think of Your Team.” Laurie hand dyed the shirts for the team members to wear to celebrate this patient’s journey.

We treat our patient like family, going above and beyond to ensure their comfort and put a smile on their face.
