We’re excited to share a major milestone at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health that is expanding our treatment options for patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib), a common heart condition that causes the heart’s upper chambers to beat irregularly, often too fast.

An advanced system recently approved by the FDA allows doctors to locate the source of the problem, destroy the tissue causing the irregular heartbeat, and confirm the success of the procedure, all with a single device. What’s even more exciting? In clinical trials, patients reported significant improvements in their overall well-being, both mentally and physically.

Known as pulse field ablation, this technology “has unique safety advantages over the typical thermal methods because it can more selectively target cardiac tissue while avoiding damage to adjacent tissue,” said Dr. Robert M. Sangrigoli, director of the Electrophysiology Lab at Doylestown Health.

“Our heart and vascular team has always been committed to identifying ways to improve and accelerate our ability to treat patients, and this is bringing better care to patients suffering from AFib.”

With more than 20 years of experience, Dr. Sangrigoli is a leading expert in heart rhythm disorders and has been a driving force behind the Electrophysiology Program at Doylestown Hospital since its inception in 2001. His skill in advanced treatments, including radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, and pulsed field ablation, has helped countless patients. Through his involvement in clinical trials, he helps ensure patients have access to the latest, most effective therapies available.

This technology is just one example of how Doylestown Health continues to lead the way in the fight against heart disease and improve the lives of those we serve.

Our lobby tree is officially glowing thanks to a wonderful group of women who have been decorating it for decades (they’ve lost count, but it’s definitely 25+ years).

The Kreative Keystone Painters of Perkasie, PA place nearly 200 hand-painted ornaments on the tree each year, a true labor of love that brings warmth, color, and a little holiday magic to everyone who walks through our lobby.

And the festive cheer doesn’t stop there! Two more beautifully decorated trees are now shining in the Gorsky Atrium of the Cardiovascular and Critical Care Pavilion as well as in the Emergency Department where Penn Medicine Doylestown Health security guard Scott Snyder helped finish things off with the perfect star topper.

When it comes to going above and beyond, Linda John, lead echo tech in cardiac services at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health sets the standard. Her commitment to service shines through in every interaction with patients and with her team.

More than once, Linda has been called in for critical situations and didn’t just answer the call, she stayed. She ran to the blood bank, stepped in wherever she was needed, and made sure patients received exceptional care without ever being asked. Linda didn’t just see a need, she met it with heart, skill, and compassion.

Help us celebrate Linda for her recognition as Associate of the Month for her dedication and extraordinary service!

When Kathy Rocchetti noticed kids at a local pool struggling to find their confidence in the water, she didn’t hesitate to jump in and make a difference. Kathy, senior executive assistant at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health and dedicated Perkasie Borough Parks & Rec volunteer, used a Penn Medicine CAREs grant to supply Coast Guard–approved swim vests for young learners.

“We all know how tough learning to swim can be, sometimes even scary,” she shared. Seeing kids light up with confidence and joy as they practiced was, in her words, “truly inspiring.”

In the photo, Kathy (third from left) is receiving a certificate of appreciation from Perkasie Borough. Thank you, Kathy, for making such a meaningful impact in our community!

Our “Flood the Food Pantry” community food drive wrapped up at the end of November, and thanks to the incredible generosity of our community and our partners at the VIA of Doylestown, we delivered multiple truckloads of food to help support our neighbors in need.

Penn Medicine Doylestown Health received more than $1,650 to support our food drive efforts, which includes a lead gift from our own medical staff.

With four drop-off locations, the James-Lorah Memorial Home, Children’s Village, and two hospital sites, our community came together in a big way to support the Bucks County Opportunity Council and Bucks County Housing Group.

Thank you to everyone who participated for showing up, giving back, and reminding us what community is all about.

Susan Dickey, a preservice representative in Patient Access, just reached a milestone few ever do. With 55 years of service, Susan is the longest tenured employee in Penn Medicine Doylestown Health history.

Susan started working at our former Belont Avenue location when just 18 years old, and has spent five-and-a-half decades welcoming patients with warmth and kindness.

She remembers plug-and-wire switchboards, her first IBM computer, and wheeling patients to their rooms and carrying their bags!

"It seems astounding that we would register patients and take them directly to their rooms, but those were really nice times, and I really liked getting to know them," Susan said.

When asked about her favorite part of working here, she joked: “The good parking!” (A big upgrade from the 70s, when staff squeezed into tight Belmont Avenue spots or borrowed a coworker’s driveway.)

Join us in celebrating Susan's 55 years of incredible service!

A small act of kindness can mean everything in the NICU. A Penn Medicine Doylestown Health NICU family received a comforting Thanksgiving meal from Today is a Good Day, a nonprofit that knows firsthand how overwhelming it can be to have a newborn in the Intensive Care Nursery. If one meal can ease even a bit of the stress parents carry during this time, they’re here to help.

Their mission is simple and powerful: to provide hope and build community through personal and financial support for families experiencing the NICU, helping fill the gaps during one of life’s most challenging chapters.

Grateful for organizations that show up with compassion when families need it most.

Nancy Holland had been experiencing heart palpitations, fatigue, and shortness of breath. When tests revealed her symptoms were due to severe mitral valve regurgitation—a condition where her heart’s mitral valve didn’t close properly, causing blood to leak backward—she was referred to James Hansen, DO, an interventional cardiologist at Penn Medicine Doylestown Health. After a thorough evaluation, he referred her to cardiothoracic surgeon Anthony Tran, MD.

Doylestown Health’s Woodall Center for Heart and Vascular Care offers several minimally invasive cardiovascular procedures, including mitral valve repair. Dr. Tran determined Nancy was a good candidate. She was grateful for this option and the quicker recovery time it offered.

While doing the surgery through a 4 to 5-centimeter “heart port” incision on her right chest, Dr. Tran also discovered a small tumor on Nancy’s valve. Although benign, the tumor could have caused future strokes.

“Thank goodness Dr. Tran performed my surgery. I had complete confidence in him anyway. I knew if anyone was going to be able to handle any complications it was him,” said Nancy. “Dr. Tran and all of my physicians and nurses gave me a new lease on life; a second chance.”

A follow-up echocardiogram two years after her surgery showed that Nancy’s valve repair continues to look great!

Patient and family education coordinator Karen Ross, MSN, RN, brought powerful storytelling and practical guidance to the Central Bucks Senior Activity Center as she helped community members learn how to advocate for themselves in healthcare conversations.

Alongside two members of our patient and family advisory council (PFAC), Karen sparked an honest discussion about what it really looks like to understand your care. PFAC members shared personal moments, times they had to speak up to get clarity and times a provider made them feel genuinely heard.

Their presentation was part of Penn Medicine Doylestown Health's Healthcare Literacy Month initiative. This year’s theme, “Your Questions Matter, Your Understanding Counts,” highlighted every patient’s right to feel informed and confident. Throughout the month, Karen, the health literacy committee, and PFAC members shared tools, tips, and resources designed to empower both staff and community members to take an active role in their health.
