 My name is Michael Sullivan and I'm an endocrine surgeon here at Hackensack Meridian Health. I think one of the days that required patients to cross state lines in order to obtain expert cancer care, Hackensack Meridian Health has constructed an equivalent program that is easily accessible to patients in their community. And this alleviates the stress for patients not only in finding a cancer care team, but also figuring out how to access them. It also allows patients to cultivate relationships with physicians that can then follow them throughout their cancer care journey. For a patient that means that rather than a single physician or a group of physicians scattered throughout their community caring for them, they will have physicians in a much more centralized fashion. This means that a patient may see their surgeon, their oncologist, their nurse navigator, a social worker, all without leaving the building. And this collaborative approach to cancer care is really important. First of all, it streamlines the patient's care delivery, but it also facilitates communication between their providers. Patients who obtain their care at Hackensack Meridian Health have access to full-time endocrine surgeons. This means that we are solely dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of endocrine neoplasia. Due to the high volume of patients that we see, we're very comfortable managing complex or reoperative cases. And as a result of that, patients stay is reduced and our outcomes are superior. As a New Jersey native, I am honored to have the opportunity to provide care to patients such a diverse and fantastic patient population. But I'm also really lucky to work with team members who empower me to deliver health care on a daily basis.
