Please join us in welcoming Aleyha Majeed, DO, to Mercy Health — West Park Family Medicine in Toledo!

Dr. Majeed is a family medicine doctor who cares for patients of all ages and all stages of life. She was first drawn to medicine through shadowing and research opportunities in high school and college, and went on to complete her Family Medicine residency in Detroit, MI. After working in urgent care, she’s excited to return to outpatient practice here in Toledo.

For Dr. Majeed, the most rewarding part of medicine is building lasting relationships with patients. “It feels good knowing that patients trust you as their doctor and want to come back for follow-ups and annual visits,” she shares.

Her approach to care is centered on respect and partnership. She believes patients should always have the final say in their medical decisions and values working together to create a plan that best fits each person’s needs.

Outside of caring for patients, Dr. Majeed enjoys spending time with her family, hiking on trails with her husband, cooking new dishes and learning to play the piano.

We’re so excited to welcome Dr. Majeed to our Mercy Health family and to the Toledo community! If you would like to book an appointment with Dr. Majeed, please visit https://bit.ly/45nH6dV.

While riding his four-wheeler on County Road 150 near his home in Arlington, 13-year-old Cullen was struck by a vehicle, suffering catastrophic injuries, including the loss of his leg. His grandfather, Jimmy, recalls the moment he arrived on the scene: “Cullen was lying in the field. He called me and said, ‘Papa… help.’ He kept saying, ‘Am I going to die?’”

Cullen was airlifted to Mercy Health — St. Vincent Medical Center, where he was met immediately by the trauma team.

“They couldn’t save his foot, but every person we came into contact with was amazing. The nurses, the doctors, the surgeons — they kept us informed every step of the way,” said his grandmother, Toni.

The road to recovery was far from easy. Cullen endured multiple surgeries, intense pain and the emotional weight of losing a limb. Through every challenge, his medical team remained at his side, offering expert care, reassurance and hope. His family credits the staff for their compassion and skill during the most frightening days of their lives.

Dr. Seth Phillips, Mercy Health orthopedic trauma surgeon and the Orthopedic Surgery Residency program director, noted that when Cullen arrived at St. Vincent Medical Center, he had a complete traumatic below-knee amputation, a complex right femur fracture, a metacarpal fracture and multiple other injuries. Initial care focused on wound cleaning and temporary stabilization, Dr. Phillips explained.

Over the following days, he and his team performed repeated debridements — the medical process of removing damaged tissue to promote healing — as well as surgeries to stabilize fractures. Ultimately, Cullen underwent a surgical below-knee amputation, preserving as much function as possible.

Cullen went home July 31, knowing he still had months of recovery ahead of him.
“Despite life-threatening injuries, Cullen demonstrated remarkable resilience,” Dr. Phillips said. “After months of intensive surgical and medical care, he is now on track to live a full, healthy and functional life with minimal long-term physical limitations.”

Today, Cullen is thriving. His wound continues to heal, and he is preparing for his prosthetic.

“I just thank God every day for allowing Cullen to come out of this,” Toni said. “It was 100% the doctors and nurses. I can’t say enough about them.”

A routine vision test led Meghan Russell on a journey she never expected — discovering a brain tumor that was threatening her sight. Thanks to Mercy Health Foundation donor support and the expertise at Mercy Health Neuroscience Institute, Meghan regained her vision and got a second chance at life.

Meghan Russell’s eyesight had never been tack sharp. But when a vision test at the DMV revealed it was getting even worse, she sought answers. She assumed that her eyes were just aging like she was. But, because of donor gifts, she discovered the truth that saved her sight.

“I scraped by with the left eye being 20-40, but my right eye was 20-400,” she says. “I didn’t know that was possible! I stopped driving because of how bad it got.”

After the eye doctors’ tests and procedures yielded no results, she continued searching. She ended up at Mercy Health — St. Vincent’s Medical Center’s new Mercy Health Neuroscience Institute. There, an MRI finally revealed the cause. Meghan had a brain tumor the size of an orange. It was putting pressure on her optic nerve and effecting her vision.

Because donors support the world-class institute, doctors were able to successfully remove the benign tumor after 13 hours of surgery.
