This year’s awards banquet featured the special recognition of long time employee and provider Dr. Gerry Lyons.  Lyons, has committed his medical career to caring for the patients in the Upper Connecticut River Valley, with over a thirty-year tenure in the areas of Primary Care, Emergency Medicine and Gastroenterology.

Dr. Lyons has spent a significant portion of his career advocating for colorectal health and other health needs of our area. His diagnostic care has saved many lives making him not only a respected clinician, but a true asset to Cottage Hospital and our community. Dr. Lyons will be retiring from Cottage Hospital at the end of 2015, but is currently still booking appointments through the late fall in his gastroenterology practice – colonoscopies save lives!
