The SJ Pathologists are unseen and unsung heroes, each day performing valuable and frequently challenging work, without receiving recognition or praise for their contributions to medicine and the diagnosis and care of our patients. Thank you for all you do for St. Joseph’s and the many lives you touch through your work. My very special thanks to Dr. Akmal and Dr. Ahmed for your kindness, caring, compassion and support during a challenging time in my life. God bless you. I already miss working with you!!

Thank you, Dr. Principe, for helping us bring two healthy boys into this world! Your expertise in maternal-fetal medicine, and your dedication to your patients, is unmatched. Our family would look very different if we did not meet you 5 years ago. While we celebrate Doctors’ Day today, we are grateful for you every day as we watch our sons grow and thrive.

You are the kindest, most compassionate provider I have ever met. Thank you for making a very uncomfortable situation much less uncomfortable, both physically, but more importantly emotionally. I truly appreciate your expertise and compassion.
