“Thousands of patients rely on Brockville General each year for vital endoscopy procedures,” said Trish Buote, Executive Director of the Brockville & District Hospital Foundation. “Upgrading this technology means earlier detection, improved comfort and greater peace of mind for our patients. We know that gastrointestinal health isn’t always easy to talk about. That’s why we’ve added a touch of humour to our message – but the impact is very real. Every donation helps our healthcare teams provide life-changing care.”
