From serving our country to caring for our community — welcome home, Dr. Sibenaller!

St. Anthony Regional Hospital was honored to host a welcome back reception for Dr. Sibenaller following his recent deployment.

During the event, President & CEO Allen Anderson returned the American flag Dr. Sibenaller sent to us that once flew over Erbil Air Base in Iraq during his service. It was our privilege to present it back to him in recognition of his dedication to our country and to celebrate his safe return home.

We are deeply grateful for Dr. Sibenaller’s military service and for the compassionate care he continues to provide to our patients and community as a physician.

Please join us in welcoming him home and thanking him for his service.
