🐾 Furry friend brings smiles to staff at ECHO 🐾

ECHO had a very special visitor, a new furry friend Sabi.

From nurses and providers to medical assistants, patient coordinators, it was incredible to see so many smiles, laughs, and moments of pure joy shared. Sometimes, the best medicine comes with four paws and wagging tail.

Thank you to Sabi & Sandy for taking the time to visit our practice. Your visit brightened our day!

A huge thank you to Subaru of New England and the many Subaru enthusiasts who participated in the Wicked Big Meet a few weekends ago!

Together, they fulfilled an Amazon wish list of comfort and support items that will directly benefit ECHO patients and their families. Donations included fans, earbuds, phone chargers, neck pillows, puzzle books, and other thoughtful items designed to make treatment days a little easier.

These items will be arriving at our offices over the next few weeks, and we look forward to distributing them to deserving individuals throughout our community.

We are incredibly grateful for the generosity and compassion of Subaru of New England, an organization that remains deeply committed to giving back and making a difference in the communities they serve all year long. Thank you for helping bring comfort, support, and kindness to our patients and their families. ❤️

June is Cancer Survivor Month — a time to celebrate the strength, courage, and resilience of cancer survivors while raising awareness about prevention, early detection, and the importance of support services. At ECHO, we are inspired every day by our incredible warriors — those who have faced cancer and those who continue their fight with determination and hope. Your strength motivates us, and we are honored to be part of your journey.

Be sure to join us for our upcoming Warrior Night on July 31 for an evening of baseball, community, and fun as we celebrate our patients, survivors, and caregivers. Click here to register: https://bit.ly/4uMM0ex

💙 Together, we celebrate survivorship, honor every journey, and continue the fight against cancer.
