On November 19, 2007, we were pleased to feature Providence Holy Cross Health at the KHTS Community Resource Station. Providence Holy Cross volunteer Lorrie Vavek and Dr. Amy Goff, were our guest for the KHTS Non-Profit Spotlight hosted by Janice Murray and sponsored by Valencia Acura .

Lorrie Vavek volunteers her time in the emergency room at providence and continues to find the work she does very rewarding. She is retired and enjoys helping out at Providence.

Dr. Goff is board certified in family practice. She is currently practicing at Health Care Partners Medical Group in Valencia with Dr. Avinash Gururaja, MD. She spoke of the preventative vaccine Gardasil that can reduce the risk of certain types of HPV, which can lead to cervical cancer later in life.

The Santa Clarita Valley community has received quality health care from Providence Holy Cross longer than any other hospital serving the region. Providence Holy Cross became the first medical center to serve the Santa Clarita Valley community when Holy Cross opened 44 years ago in 1961 and they are committed to providing the community with its present and future health care needs as well.

Currently, 16 percent of Providence Holy Cross’ inpatients are of the Santa Clarita Valley. In the near future, it is projected that 1 out of every 5 Providence Holy Cross patients will be Santa Clarita residents.

The Providence Holy Cross Health Center in Valencia offers quality services and care right here in the Santa Clarita Valley.
