Today and every day, I am honored to work at St Joseph’s Health alongside my distinguished colleagues to care for the underserved. As service leaders we uphold a tradition of service, mission, and compassion which is embodied by the Sisters of Charity. Last year alone we provided over $250 Million in Charity Care to the most vulnerable.
With all the change, growth, and development over the years, what has remained constant is our caring physicians inspired by its founders, Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth, and the ongoing support of people like you.
Please join me in my commitment to serve our community by making a gift today in honor of your physician for National Doctor’s Day.
I congratulate all of the physicians at St Joseph’s Health as we celebrate them on National Doctors’ Day for their contributions to individual lives and communities, and am proud to call them my colleagues. Because of them, our health system is held in the highest regard. Their compassionate care and humanistic approach makes a difference.

Dr. Appelboom is one of the most attentive and innovative physician I have been in the presence of. I cannot thank him enough for the compassionate care he has provided my father. Happy National Doctors’ Day, Dr. Appelboom!
On National Doctors’ Day, I want to thank all the Doctors at St. Joseph’s. As a resident of Paterson and an employee at Catholic Charities, I frequently hear of the good work that you do every day to care for those who are ill and in need of your compassionate care. You embody the Mission of the Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth. May God bless you and your service.

His decorum, candor, and even humor have been much appreciated!
Thanks to them I was able to safely carry my daughter and now have a happy, beautiful and healthy 16 month old. There will never be enough words to fully thank them for keeping she and I safe.
On the evening of April 4, 2022 we brought my step-dad to the ER. It was a very difficult 48 hours that followed (due to his conditions). Cheryl Kennedy provided so much genuine concern and compassion. She was quick to respond and helped comfort me at a time when so needed.
