Lung cancer screening can save lives, but many people aren’t sure who qualifies or what to expect.

Join a free, brief online information session with GO2 for Lung Cancer to learn the essentials:
• Who should consider screening
• What happens during the exam
• Why early detection matters

These sessions are offered multiple times each week now through May 1, making it easy to attend from anywhere. Lung cancer screening is quick, painless, and designed to detect cancer early, when treatment is most effective.

We’re proud to celebrate an incredible achievement by our Perioperative (Peri-Op) Team at St. Anthony Community Hospital.

In December, the team scored in the 99th percentile for Press Ganey Top Box patient experience scores — a reflection of the compassion, teamwork, and commitment they bring to every patient, every day.

Behind this milestone are nurses, physicians, techs, and support staff who work together to ensure patients feel safe, informed, and cared for during some of their most vulnerable moments.

Please join us in congratulating the entire St. Anthony Peri-Op team on this outstanding accomplishment. Thank you for continuing to raise the bar for patient care in our community.

Congratulations to Andrew Pickens, MD, JD, MBA, Regional Executive Director & Chief Medical Officer, Western Region of WMCHealth, on being included in City and State NY's Responsible 100 list! Each December, City & State recognizes 100 people who exemplify what it means to be socially responsible.

"To me, social responsibility means recognizing that health care leadership carries an obligation to serve not just individual patients, but the broader community. It’s about ensuring that every decision we make – clinical, operational or strategic – reflects our commitment to equity, compassion and public trust," said Dr. Pickens.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Pickens on this recognition and thank you to everyone on the list for making a difference, now and in the future.
