A message from Roy Butler
In my 25-year career at St. Joseph’s, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing astounding creativity and in5novation in real time. Nothing is more exhilarating than seeing an idea take shape, transformed and perfected through research, and then take flight to improve care and the patient experience. Discovery is an essential part of who we are and what we do. We are proud to have people in our organization, like Dr. Michael Silverman, who push the boundaries of science every day to make the impossible possible. You can read more in this issue about his groundbreaking work in saving lives through fecal microbial transplantation.
Our people are our greatest asset and as we continue to navigate through year three of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are focused on ways to strengthen our workforce. We will continue to rely on leaders like Dr. Laura Lyons for their commitment to care, the dedication of our many volunteers, and new ways to welcome internationally trained health care workers like Jasmine Devassy to our ranks.
These stories are just a glimpse into the exciting work taking place at St. Joseph’s each day. We are energized and inspired by the possibilities – those known and those yet to be discovered. The future is bright.
