St. Joe’s takes care of my family

“St. Joe’s has helped me through the most pivotal points in my life,” says Inez Kim. “My children were born here, I was saved here, and so were my daughters.”

Her oldest daughter Lauren’s life was saved after a severe nut allergy when she was one. When her youngest daughter Sofia was born, Dr. Eddy Lau discovered that she had a heart defect.

Then Inez was diagnosed with breast cancer. “St. Joe’s pulled me through,” says Inez. “Sofia got the care she needed and I had my surgery, chemotherapy and follow-up care all here at St. Joe’s.”

“Knowing that there are new spaces for breast screening and treatment, means to me that this community is well taken care of. ”
