A Constant Through the Seasons - Celebrating Becky Campbell

In the lives of many fam­i­lies, there’s been one famil­iar, com­fort­ing pres­ence through count­less snif­fles, check-ups, first fevers, and grow­ing pains — Becky Campbell.

After more than 40 years ded­i­cat­ed to pedi­atrics, includ­ing 27 years with Quin­cy Med­ical Group (QMG), Becky, a nurse prac­ti­tion­er, is retir­ing. To the fam­i­lies she cared for, she has been more than just a health­care provider; she has become a cher­ished part of their extend­ed family. 

The Nudge That Made All the Difference: David’s Story

Some­times a lit­tle push from loved ones can make all the dif­fer­ence. For David P., encour­age­ment from his wife and daugh­ters led to a der­ma­tol­ogy appoint­ment that may have saved his life. Dur­ing a full skin exam with Dr. Austin Mad­dy at Quin­cy Med­ical Group, a sus­pi­cious mole on David’s neck was iden­ti­fied as melanoma — caught ear­ly thanks to their per­sis­tence. David’s expe­ri­ence is a pow­er­ful reminder of how quick, sim­ple, and poten­tial­ly life­sav­ing a skin exam can be.

What Are the Effects of Dehydration on Your Heart Health?

By

Whether you’re going for a run, sit­ting on your couch recov­er­ing from a bad flu, or sit­ting out in the hot sun, you’ve prob­a­bly heard the same advice: Get plen­ty of fluids.

Drink­ing enough flu­ids pre­vents you from get­ting dehy­drat­ed. Dehy­dra­tion is more than just feel­ing thirsty – it’s when you lose or use more flu­id than you take in, and your body doesn’t have the water it needs to func­tion correctly. 

Stay­ing hydrat­ed is crit­i­cal for stay­ing healthy, and it’s espe­cial­ly impor­tant for main­tain­ing a healthy heart.

A Father’s Day Tribute: Honoring the Generations Before

This Father’s Day, Quin­cy Med­ical Group’s Sarah McIn­tyre, PA‑C, reflects on the lega­cy of care passed down through her fam­i­ly. Inspired by her grand­fa­ther, Dr. Mer­le Cross­land, and great-grand­fa­ther, Dr. Wal­ter Whitak­er — one of QMG’s founders — Sarah con­tin­ues their tra­di­tion of com­pas­sion­ate, com­mu­ni­ty-cen­tered health­care. Their val­ues of integri­ty, ded­i­ca­tion, and ser­vice live on through Sarah’s work in pedi­atrics, hon­or­ing the gen­er­a­tions before her and the patients she serves today.
