Earlier this year, we became the first hospital in the Central Valley to use the Abbott AVEIR™ Dual Chamber Leadless Pacemaker. Earlier this week, ABC30 stopped by our hospital and spoke with Fresno-area cardiologist Dalpinder Sandhu and our Director of Telemetry and Cardiovascular Services Glyniss D'Mello.

Please join us in celebrating this month's GEM (Going the Extra Mile) Award winner, Dolores Lopez, Environmental Assistant! 💎 Dolores went above and beyond for a patient struggling with their hospital stay. During her routine cleaning, Dolores noticed a patient was feeling down. With kindness in her heart, Dolores offered a simple but powerful gesture—prayer. "She must have noticed I was stressed out and down hearted, so she asked if she could pray for me. I said yes, and she prayed for me," the grateful patient said. "I was so grateful she went out of her way to bring me comfort and compassion." Dolores, your kindness and compassion truly make a difference. Thank you for embodying Saint Agnes' Core Values and reminding us all the power of human connection ❤️ #TeamSAMC #SAMCProud #GEMAward #GoingTheExtraMile #GratefulPatient
