- We continued to elevate cardiac care in South Jersey, performing more than 450 Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) procedures this year, nearly 300 of them electively.

- We raised the bar in early lung cancer detection and treatment, with more than 1,000 low-dose CT scans, and more than 100 navigational bronchoscopy procedures at our hospitals in Mullica Hill and Vineland. Besides being highly accurate and reducing the need for more invasive or repeated diagnostic procedures, navigational bronchoscopy has shown to reduce complications. These can include infection, bleeding, pain, and false diagnoses (whether negative or positive) which can arise from traditional, more invasive approaches.

- General surgery resident Bismarck Osumo, MD, was born and raised in Kenya, and shared how being a part of Inspira has impacted him. “As a smaller community program in a rural area, you tend to see patients who may not have insurance, or may have a lot of medical problems. This is very sentimental to me because I didn't grow up with the best or most accessible health care back home. Being a part of a program like this here at Inspira, one that is bringing accessible health care to the community, is something I am very willing to participate in,” he said.
- Family medicine resident, Jessa Hernandez, MD, reflected on her ability to give back to the community she grew up in and looks forward to her future with Inspira. “I see Inspira growing in the future, not only in the number of locations that are available, but also in the number of residencies that they can offer and the amount of education and training we can provide. Inspira has a lot to offer us. I would love to see new residency programs that will teach even more upcoming physicians to be the best physicians that they can be,” she said.
