Born six weeks premature with a double hernia, Carly Jeffris arrived at CHOP for immediate surgery.
It was 1996. Her mother and father were first-time parents and it was the family's first time meeting CHOP's Surgeon-in-Chief Dr. Scott Adzick.
FULL CIRCLE MOMENT: “To think she was cared for here at @ChildrensPhila many years ago, & she’s back helping babies w/ surgical problems on my neonatal team is just mind boggling!”- Surgeon-in-chief, Dr. Adzick, operated on NICU nurse 25 years ago. Now, they work together at CHOP https://t.co/TTiIqxLaAZpic.twitter.com/QK2IQ18I7W— Christie Ileto (@Christie_Ileto) February 27, 2021
