Grateful Patient

Has an SGMC physician or nurse made a difference in your life? You can recognize a physician, nurse or other care provider who made a difference for you or a loved one through our Grateful Patient program.
 
When you honor a care provider who took remarkable care of you, they receive a card with your special message and a custom-crafted pin to wear proudly each day. The amount of your gift will not be shared.
