Stephanie Masters current PGY-3 went above and beyond with a patient today. With an already busy patient load she went out of her way to counsel and talk with a patient regarding treatment options that would best benefit her without being asked. We love you!
On 12/10/24, Belinda Ashby, PharmD, received a call from a patient while working in her role as a pharmacist at Carilion Clinic Pharmacy-New River Valley. For various reasons, this patient was needing a specific medication within a very short time and wanted to be as discreet as possible even to the extent of not wanting to divulge contact information. Belinda patiently listened to the patient's request and went to work to be accommodating.
I was a patient at Parkway Vinton Medical Family Practice on 12/05/24.
Carilion's Provider Enrollment Team decided to do a holiday drive to create care kits for unhoused individuals this year.

I would like to give a shout out to my co-worker Lauren Prince in Pediatric Cardiology. We have a little fellow that comes from Martinsville that has been a very sick one. Lauren found out that he loves Strawberry Ice Cream, and she will run over to Kroger's to get a box when she knows he is coming to our clinic.
