Maryland's Health Matters - BWMC - Spring 2017 - 3

A HEALTHY START

LETTER FROM THE CEO

A WINNING PARTNERSHIP
At University of
Maryland Baltimore
Washington Medical
Center, we pride
ourselves on working as a collaborative
team to meet the
health care needs
of our patients and
our community.
As a member of the
University of Maryland Medical System, UM BWMC is
fortunate that our team extends beyond our medical
campus and across the entire state. This partnership
allows us to bring world-class care to the patients we
serve right here within our own walls and community.
UM BWMC is powerfully connected to deliver
accessible excellence. Fueled by passion, our staff
and physicians collaborate across a broad network
of hospitals, outpatient care centers, physician practices and health insurance plans to deliver the highest caliber of care throughout the state of Maryland.
We take a team approach to care, working
together to treat each patient as an individual, not as
a number. With cutting-edge technology and clinical
advancements using evidence-based medicine, we
provide the highest quality care and guarantee you
have access to the specialists your family needs.
We are proud to be a part of a greater integrated
network of care. And most importantly, we're proud
to help you live a greater and healthier life.

Arkaime Kess, service line coordinator for robotic
surgery, explains the new state-of-the-art equipment
in the UM BWMC Surgery Center.
