When John and Evelyn Schmitt arrived at Torrance Memorial’s Emergency Department, they feared the worst. After multiple eye surgeries and a second retinal detachment, they were told Evelyn might lose her eye.

But Dr. Eileen Chang wasn’t ready to give up.

She took the time to listen, re-evaluate the situation, and personally connect the family with specialists. Today, Evelyn is receiving advanced care from a retina surgeon, with hope of preserving her vision.

John shared: “Dr. Chang truly puts her patients first and made a profound difference in our lives.”

This is what the Reason Is You is all about—going the extra mile when it matters most.

Big impact can start with something small. When planning his Eagle Scout project, Brady Barrett chose to help restore habitat for the endangered El Segundo blue butterfly—a species once on the brink of extinction.

Working with the South Bay Parkland Conservancy and local volunteers, Brady helped transform a neglected area of Czuleger Park into part of a growing wildlife corridor supporting native plants and pollinators.

Brady’s passion for service doesn’t stop there. As a Torrance Memorial High School Volunteer, he’s also gaining firsthand experience in patient care—an experience that’s helping shape his dream of becoming a surgeon.

From protecting delicate ecosystems to supporting patients in the hospital, Brady is already making a difference in the South Bay community.

🎈 Meet the doctor who saves lives by day… and inflates celebrations by night.

This month’s MD Local spotlight features Jamie Kagihara, MD, a board-certified critical care pulmonologist at Torrance Memorial, and the creative force behind festive balloon garlands known around her Hollyglen neighborhood as “Dr. Balloons.”

When she’s not caring for critically ill patients in the ICU, Dr. Kagihara is busy raising two active boys, volunteering in her community and crafting colorful balloon displays for local celebrations (including a few at Torrance Memorial).

“Can I emphasize how great this community is? The people in Hollyglen have become our chosen family,” she says. “I want to be involved and contribute to the community in any way possible.”

Originally from Honolulu, Dr. Kagihara brings the calm, steady mindset she learned growing up in the Aloha State to some of medicine’s most intense moments—helping guide patients and families through critical care with compassion and expertise.

From the ICU to community parades, Dr. Kagihara shows that caring for others can take many forms.

Sometimes the smallest moments can make the biggest difference.
In the Torrance Memorial NICU, a new program called Little Joys is helping parents connect with their babies in a powerful way—through reading.
For families facing long and emotional NICU stays, simply hearing a parent’s voice reading a story can help comfort newborns, support early brain development and create meaningful bonding moments when holding a baby may not be possible.

The program’s mobile lending library is supported by three local teens—one a former NICU baby herself—who want to bring comfort and connection to families navigating one of life’s most challenging experiences.
Because in the NICU, sometimes a quiet story shared between parent and child becomes a memory that lasts forever.
Read how Little Joys is bringing hope to families, one story at a time.

Is napping healthy — or harmful? According to Torrance Memorial sleep specialist Khalid M. Eltawil, MD, FAASM, the answer depends on timing, duration and your overall sleep habits. While short early-afternoon naps can help reduce sleep debt and improve alertness, frequent or long daytime naps may signal an underlying sleep disorder.

Learn how to nap the right way — and when it’s time to talk to a doctor.

To schedule an appointment with Dr. Eltawil or another Torrance Memorial sleep expert, call the Torrance Memorial Sleep Disorders Center at 310-517-8950.

Recovery often begins with a single moment of compassion.
At Torrance Memorial Medical Center, our Substance Use Navigator Program is changing how we care for patients struggling with addiction—connecting them to life-saving treatment, removing stigma, and guiding them toward recovery.

For Sharon Hartwig, that support made all the difference.
“There is no possible way—without a shadow of a doubt—that I would be sober without Carol and the care at Torrance Memorial. It saved my life. If not, I don’t think I would be sitting here today.”

Today, Sharon is sober, living in her own apartment, and rebuilding her life—thanks to the care and guidance she received from Substance Use Navigator Carol Dunne and the Torrance Memorial team.

Read her powerful story and learn how this program is helping patients find hope and healing.
