Discover the GBMC Difference

Earlier this week, we launched a new campaign, Discover the GBMC Difference. This campaign will highlight what sets GBMC apart from other healthcare companies in the Baltimore area. 

So, if you’re looking for a primary or specialty care physician or advanced practitioner for you or your loved one, or if you are looking for a new job as a nurse or as another member of the health care team, I invite you to visit www.gbmc.org/discover to learn more and to share the site with your friends and family members. 

The website is a one-stop-shop that will direct you to a broad range of clinical and surgical services. We are proud to be recognized as award-winning leaders in many areas such as maternity care, pediatrics, women’s health and cancer care, to name just a few.  

Our mission at GBMC HealthCare is to provide health, healing, and hope to all we serve in the community. It is our privilege to serve others, and it is our vision to provide the best health outcomes and care experiences with the least waste of resources and the most joy for those providing the care. 

A huge thanks to the team members who worked to get this new website and campaign off the ground. I hope that many of you will take the time to explore the website.  

Celebrating Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month
Each May, Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month commemorates the vital contributions of Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders (AAPI) and native Hawaiians to our nation’s history and recognizes the challenges many have faced along the way. 

We are fortunate at GBMC in that we have a diverse staff that come from many different cultures. It is this diversity that enriches our work and our patients’ experience. We proudly celebrate Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and I want to thank our AAPI staff for their contributions to our community and hard work on the frontlines in serving our patients! 

FORE!!! A Few Causes
The annual GBMC Golf Classic was held this past Monday at Turf Valley Country Club. Mother Nature provided optimal weather conditions for the 110 golfers who played to help raise funds for continuing medical and clinical education in the GBMC HealthCare system and for the John E. Savage Medical Library, which provides our clinicians and members of the community the most up-to-date medical information. 

Countless hours were spent by the golf tournament committee preparing for this great event, which grossed approximately $125,000. I’m very grateful to everyone who helped us raise the money and to those who came out to play. Congratulations to the committee, co-chaired by Laurie R. Beyer, MBA, CPA, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, along with emergency department physicians Dov Frankel, MD, and William Zirkin, MD.

Hats off also to those who helped with the event, and to Jenny Coldiron and the GBMC Philanthropy staff, all of whom worked together to make it a great day of fun in the sun.  

Happy Mother’s Day!
On Mother’s Day we reflect on motherhood and thank our mothers for their love and support. 

To all mothers in the GBMC HealthCare System (especially those with newborns!), we wish you a Happy Mother's Day!
