Dr. Peter Buzek donated $22,726 to our #BetterBeds campaign for Erie Shores HealthCare (ESHC) in November of 2022.
As a local physician, Dr. Buzek wanted to emphasize the need for quality, comfortable beds for both patients and care providers and inspire others to give to the campaign as well.
Dr. Buzek’s Giving Tuesday match incentive helped raise an extra $17,000 for Better Beds.
Last week, Dr. Buzek joined Tracy Oswald (ESHF), Debbie Kobayashi (ESHF), Gloria Cavenago (ESHF) and Beth Hall (ESHC) at ESHC to see a new bed that was purchased thanks to his donation, and many other community donations.
Thank you Dr. Buzek for recognizing the need for quality equipment in health care and our mission to provide the best quality care possible in our community.
