“MindiPatient – received double hip replacement“I decided to ‘go big or go home’ after Dr. Shephard recommended I do both hips at the same time. My quality of life has improved significantly and my recovery went very well. I was discharged from home PT quickly because I was doing better than my PT expected. Dr. Shephard’s sense of humor eased my nerves. I recommend him and already gave a coworker his office number!”
“Keoma Santiago RiveraCentral Sterile Processing Technician“I just arrived from Florida after leaving behind my job position at Medfleet Ambulance. I knew the medical field was where I wanted to continue my career, buy without my diploma, I wasn’t sure how it was going to be possible. I saw a post on indeed for EVS at Brooks and applied and started working my way up from there. Next, I was a PCA and earning a high school diploma, to now working CSP for Brooks Hospital. What I love about lot about Brooks is they gave me a job opportunity with no education but mostly, I love that we are more than coworkers. We are a family. We care and value everybody — without judgement.”
“Dr. Abdul ShahzadGeneral Surgeon“I like working at Brooks for many reasons, but one reason is the family culture. When anyone needs help, everyone helps out like they would family. Dr. Barker (ED) recently heard I wanted to restore the rocking chair that was my daughter Crisha’s, when she was a little girl. He is a talented woodworker and he came to me and offered to do it. I could give it to my granddaughter, Salma for her first Birthday. It was a special gift from two doctors!”
“Patient of Lake Erie Medical Services“As someone who's always been active, losing the ability to move freely was life-changing. Numbness, tingling, and pain made everyday tasks impossible. After seeing Dr. Kukreja, I had a Lumbar Discectomy within a month of my initial visit and was walking the day after my surgery, pain-free. His care and expertise made all the difference. I now have a deep appreciation for mobility and am so grateful to have had Dr. Kukreja locally. I'm back to living life-active, confident, and free.”
