Our Wall of Gratitude

“A hospital is part of everyone’s story, whether it’s the birth of your children or death of a loved one. I’ve experienced both and it is the first-hand care that I’ve experienced at St. Joe’s that inspires me to do what I can to support St. Joe’s.”

 
Mike Talmage

“From great paediatric care in the CIBC Just for Kids Clinic, the NICU, to a full Emergency Department with an area dedicated to kids, as well as mental health support for those who are most vulnerable, St. Joe’s has it all.”

 
Anilisa Sainani Board Member, St. Joseph’s Health Centre Foundation

“For a century, St. Joe’s has helped make Toronto’s west end a great place to live and grow. It’s always been there for my family and whole community by providing compassionate care above and beyond the ordinary.”

 
Brendan Shanahan

“When my two beautiful daughters were born six weeks early, they had to stay in the Neonatal ICU for four weeks. Leaving them at night was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. But I knew they were in good hands—the nurses cared for my daughters with such compassion, like they were their own.”

 
Jennifer

“We’ve lived in this community for many years and St. Joe’s has been a part of our lives during both happy and difficult times. I will always remember the young doctor in the Intensive Care Unit who stayed with my mom throughout the night like she was a member of his family. St. Joe’s saved her life.”

 
Anne and Tom

“Recently, I visited St. Joe’s for a mammogram. The new 3-D machine really stood out! The entire process was incredibly smooth and the staff were so warm and professional. Thank you!”
