INDIANAPOLIS
– Bridget Sanders, MD, is the recipient of the Healing Hands Award for the
second quarter of 2013.
Sanders has practiced
medicine with the Franciscan Physician Network Kendrick
Colon & Rectal Center since 2005 and has been an active member of the
Franciscan St. Francis Health medical staff.
One of the nomination
forms from a former patient’s daughter, notes that “her compassion and love for
her career are obvious. She is an angel.” Qualities like these have made
Sanders a respected and valued member of the Franciscan St. Francis medical
staff.
Reception of the
award is bittersweet for Sanders as she prepares to leave the Indianapolis
area. She will be relocating to San Antonio, Texas, later this summer to begin
work at Cristus Santa Rosa Hospital. This move offers her the opportunity to
spend more time with her son and pursue a degree in law.
The award
presentation and reception for Sanders is scheduled 7 a.m., Friday, July 12, in
the auditorium at the hospital’s Indianapolis
campus.
The
Healing Hands Award is presented quarterly to Franciscan St. Francis physicians
who demonstrate excellence in clinical skills, patient relations, research,
stewardship, and reflection of the hospital’s health care ministry, values and
mission.
