It’s been more than a year since the world first learned of COVID-19 and much of our attention understandably has been focused on protecting ourselves and others from the disease that started a global pandemic.
While the focus on COVID-19 is important, Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital Foundation continues to support philanthropic efforts to treat and prevent other deadly diseases within our community.
To that end, Dignity Health Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital’s new Radiation Oncologist Dr. Clayton Hess has identified equipment needs that will allow him to treat additional types of cancers at SNMH’s Community Cancer Center.
