McLaren Port Huron

Meet the Residents! Join us in welcoming our new Graduate Medical Education residents to McLaren Port Huron. This week, meet Dr. Kairavi Shah – Internal Medicine: Originally from India, I completed my medical school in Ahmedabad. Another city that holds a special place in my heart is Stuart in Florida, where my family resides. When I'm not immersed in evidence-based medicine or dreaming of a cardiology fellowship you'll find me on the badminton court or dancing to good beats and adding color to canvases. Living by the serene waters of Port Huron will add a perfect touch of calm to my vibrant life. I'm excited to bring this energy to our close-knit residency program. Dr. Shah is located in the McLaren Port Huron Academic Center for Internal Medicine (1216 Richardson Street, 810-985-2640).

Congratulations Cassie MacCullum, our Employee of the Month: Cassie MacCullum, a cardiovascular tech in the Cath Lab, was nominated by colleagues who noted that there are "a million reasons" she could be Employee of the Month, from creating a positive environment, running the charge phone with poise. Some of the comments they shared: * Her integrity and work ethic are an absolute asset to what we do in the Cardiovascular Lab. * The level of care she inspires us to provide through her selflessness and compassion is invaluable. * She's the "self-appointed cruise director" who plans special events for the team. * Her positive attitude and infectious smile set the tone for the day. * She is well respected by her peers and physicians and is a go-to person for anyone in need of help. Thank you, Cassie!

This week, meet Jessica Jorge, MD, Internal Medicine: Hi, I am a Doctor of Medicine graduate from the University of the City of Manila in the Philippines. After medical school I returned to Fresno, CA to be with my family and pursue residency training in the US. Working with communities and patients both in my home country and in the US led me to discover that I’m passionate about community health, mentorship, and comprehensive patient care. Outside of medicine, I like to go boxing, take long drives and sing at an open mic night. I am excited to work with McLaren Port Huron to contribute their mission to provide excellent and compassionate care for the communities it serves.
