Eye Center Team in a League of Their Own

The pavilion at Polar Park was filled with nothing but joy, happiness and laughter when the Eye Center Team gathered to celebrate the accomplishments of the past five years. It was indeed a beautiful sight to see after two long and tedious years, and the blue, sunny skies over the field offered hope for the future.

Dr. Schaal expressed her appreciation for the Eye Center Team that has created and sustained a culture of positivity, helpfulness, inclusivity, joy and love, even during the most difficult of times. Members of the team were recognized for certain achievements, but as Dr. Schaal clearly noted, they are a team and its success is only possible because of the dedication of all Eye Center colleagues, including those who work behind the scenes to ensure things run smoothly.

Reassurance, compassion, consistency, determination, quick thinking, and ability to adapt were some of the many words that resonated with Katherine Ribeiro, manager of the Eye Center, when she spoke passionately about her colleagues and what makes the Eye Center the place “you want to work, a place you want to be.”

This is a team that collectively recognizes how fortunate they are to work alongside each other, making each other better, while being committed to making a difference in the quality of the daily lives of each patient.
