You do not have to wait for a crisis to talk to someone. Sometimes therapy starts with a simple feeling that something isn’t quite right — and that’s enough.

Check out this article, where Louis McCroskey, MA, LLP, counselor at Bronson HelpNet Behavioral Health Specialists, talks openly about what really happens in therapy and how early support can help you move forward with clarity and confidence: https://bronsonhealth.us/40H9KnK

Today, we celebrate the doctors whose expertise, compassion and dedication make a meaningful impact for patients and families in our community.

Medicine is more than a job – it’s a calling. Our doctors live that calling every day as they care for patients through some of life’s most important moments, teaming up with colleagues, both on the frontlines and behind the scenes, to deliver high-quality, harmonious care.

As we mark Bronson’s 125th anniversary, we’re grateful for the generations of doctors who have helped shape our legacy. If a Bronson doctor has made a difference in your life or the life of someone you love, give them a shoutout in the comments or share your story at bronsonpositivity.com.

This Women’s History Month, we’re celebrating the women who make Bronson great. Meet
Madalynne Sneed and Kimel Hodges, members of our Women’s Employee Resource Group.

A member of Team Bronson for over five years, Madalynne is a Medical Assistant at Bronson Primary Care Partners on West Main. “Being able to support my team and make workflows smoother is really meaningful to me. Those are the times that I feel most empowered in my work – being trusted to help improve how things run in the office,” she explains. “It is also empowering when a patient asks for me specifically to be their MA. It is a great feeling knowing that my patient is leaving their appointment feeling heard, helped and cared for.”

Kimel works as an HR Business Partner. Though she is new to Bronson – starting just a few months ago – she feels empowered by her new leaders who show confidence in her ability to contribute strategically and lead meaningful work that supports our teams and the health system. “Strategic thinking paired with emotional intelligence has been foundational for me. These strengths have helped me lead and collaborate effectively with my team and stakeholders, allowing me to navigate complexity with clarity, build trust and move initiatives forward in a thoughtful way.”

We’re proud to spotlight women like Madalynne and Kimel who uplift others, lead with purpose and help make Bronson a place where both employees and patients thrive.
