Low-dose CT lung screenings help catch cancer early—when it’s most treatable.

Your annual physical could catch a serious condition before you ever feel a symptom. Conditions like high blood pressure, high cholesterol and even some cancers often have no early warning signs. But routine screenings during a physical can detect them early, when they’re most treatable.

Your check-up also gives your doctor a chance to look at the whole picture: your medications, mental health, sleep, stress and lifestyle goals. A quick visit today can help prevent a major issue tomorrow.

We recently celebrated our incredible ED staff for consistently achieving low LWOT (left without treatment) and AMA (against medical advice) rates month after month—a huge accomplishment that reflects their unwavering commitment to our patients.

These scores show that, no matter how busy the emergency room gets, every patient is a priority. Our team remains focused on seeing everyone who comes through our doors and providing the support they need to stay and complete their care.

We’re proud to honor this hardworking team for their outstanding efforts and continued commitment to putting patients first. 💙
