“I’m very happy to be part of such a great team,” said Emily, who likes to spend her spare time trying new restaurants and being outdoors with her dog. “I instantly felt welcomed and comfortable when I arrived at WTMF. Everyone in General Surgery communicates effectively with each other and dedicates their time and energy to ensure every patient is properly treated. Throughout the organization, providers and staff members treat everyone with compassion and respect, and that’s an approach that makes me feel at home.”
