An update from Dr. Fishman:
I would like to take the opportunity to thank the efforts of those on the “front line” of the COVID-19 crisis. I am eternally grateful for the men and women who work around the clock to care for all of us. I pray for us and them that they continue to have the strength to continue under circumstances that most people would not.
At the hospitals I work at, they are now working 12 hours shifts, 7 days a week to care for the sickest among us. These people are rockstars. They see the grief, the sickness, and the emotional pain of
patients and families and continue to work everyday.
They care for and pour their love and support into their patients, many of which may never be able to do the same for their family and friends in the future, let alone for total strangers.
COVID has shown us that people are good, no, great. We need to support, without fail, the wonderful people dedicated to the care and concern of others.
Our Community means the world to us.
You’re not stuck at home, you’re safe at home..
For the foreseeable future the office will remain closed.
