Buffalo Business First recognized 25 men and women in the Western New York region during the inaugural program. Among those honored were physicians, nurses, administrators, board members, advocates and researchers who are making a difference in the healthcare industry.

Throughout her 12 year history with the organization, Joanne says her proudest accomplishment has been “supporting the team of dedicated, kind people at Neighborhood Health Center so that we were able to surpass 25,000 patients served in 2018.”

Joanne also takes pride in being a member of the clinical team, where she still gets the opportunity to treat and learn from Neighborhood Health Center patients one day a week.
