Beginning last year, two members of our Board of Trustees, Ken Barron and Howard Stevenson, annually recognize an individual who champions Mount Auburn Hospital's ideals of excellence, culture, and compassion by bestowing them the "Mount Auburness Award."
This year's Mount Auburness recipient is Heather Gibbons! Thank you Heather, for being a proud representation of our hospital through the quality of your care. Join us in saying congratulations! 🏆🎉
When I was first introduced to Heather, I was told she is the “Heart and Soul”of Mount Auburn.
The title could not be truer or more apt.
Heather embodies what it means to be present, caring , empowering and empathetic. A true leader in every way.
Feeling so very fortunate to share professional space with you Heather. You are most worthy of this distinction. Congratulations to Mount Auburn for recognizing this.
Heather Gibbons' recognition with the Mount Auburn Hospital Auburness Award is a testament to her exceptional dedication and the high standards upheld by Mount Auburn Hospital. Congratulations, Heather, on this well-deserved honor!

Breaking News! Great news for Irvine & Santa Ana CA residents and oncology professionals. A new facility is coming to the southern CA region, bringing care options closer to home. Residents, healthcare leaders, and market stats all suggest that this is exactly what the area needs.
For those living in the area, this means better options for care nearer to you, without having to drive over an hour for the type of doctor you need. Bringing top-notch care options closer to residents is critical to access and changes how many will experience treatment in the area. It means less cost to patients who travel out of town and pay for overnight stays. It means actually getting the care you deserve for those who are not able to overcome geographical and financial barriers to care in their region.
For those working in rad-onc or planning to, and are from the area, you are getting a brand new facility as an option for your career. You can reconsider having to move away from your relatives to get the best job in your field. A trusted name and the best minds in the field are now in your backyard. This will drive oncology professionals to the region for better cost of living, housing, and research opportunities.
Thank you to everyone involved in bringing care options closer to the southern CA region in Irvine. Let's celebrate better options for care and career opportunities for oncology workers. #Irvine#SantaAna#healthcare#oncology#careeropportunities#newfacility#healthcaretechnicalstaffing
System Chief Executive - City of Hope Medical Foundation & National Physician Organization
Today, leaders from across the City of Hope system came together to launch the activation of our new and upcoming Irvine Hospital. It was a historic day as we plan for our second academic hospital in Southern California.
Toward the end of the session leaders Annette Walker, Wendy Austin, Annette Morgan, M.B.A., Laura Grant, Dr. Ed Kim and I - took questions from the audience. At the start of the Q&A, there was silence for almost a minute as scores of leaders took their phones out and began taking pictures of the panel. Here is the moment Ed and I realized the audience was actually scanning the bar code above our heads in order to submit their questions - not taking a picture. Our influencer moment quickly evaporated!
Thank you to all our leaders who participated. This will be an exceptional journey as we open a world class hospital in Irvine. Your talent, compassion and focus will lead to a place of healing like no other.
