Celebrating 125 Years of Excellence
Robert McCann, MD and Mary Beth McCann
We are very excited to be co-chairs of Highland Hospital’s biggest-ever Gala event– the 125th anniversary celebration on April 5.
It is extremely gratifying to see how the hospital has expanded its services to the community in recent years. Not so long ago, Highland was a small community hospital – and while we have retained a patient-friendly experience in a small, easily navigated setting, Highland has greatly enhanced the number and type of medical services we provide to the community.
Much has changed since the early days of “Hahnemann Homeopathic Hospital,” as Highland was known in 1889. And much has remained the same – then as now, a great hospital needs talented people who are passionate about delivering great medical care, and a community that supports their endeavors. As we celebrate Highland’s milestone, we also celebrate the community that makes Highland’s good works possible.
The Highland Gala is the hospital’s most important fundraising event of the year, but it is so much more: it is an opportunity to recognize and celebrate all of the people who make Highland special: its generous supporters, as well as dedicated physicians, nurses, staff members and volunteers.
We thank the many sponsors of this Gala and the generations of supporters who have helped build an exceptional hospital in our hometown. It’s going to be a wonderful evening; we look forward to seeing all of Highland’s friends and supporters there!
