Each hol­i­day sea­son, Quincy’s Waver­ing Park trans­forms into a daz­zling win­ter won­der­land for the Fes­ti­val of Lights, a cher­ished tra­di­tion led by Eric Doo­ley and his fam­i­ly. For years, Eric’s health chal­lenges, includ­ing severe knee pain stem­ming from a high school ACL injury, made the phys­i­cal­ly demand­ing work of cre­at­ing the dis­play near­ly impossible.

Turn­ing to Quin­cy Med­ical Group (QMG) for help, Eric began treat­ment with Nurse Prac­ti­tion­er Mary Beth Deck­er and even­tu­al­ly under­went knee replace­ment surgery with Ortho­pe­dic Sur­geon Dr. George Crickard III. The surgery was life-chang­ing, allow­ing Eric to walk with­out pain and ful­ly embrace his role in the Fes­ti­val of Lights.

A strong rela­tion­ship with a pedi­a­tri­cian can make all the dif­fer­ence in car­ing for chil­dren, as one fam­i­ly expe­ri­enced with Dr. Todd Porter from Quin­cy Med­ical Group (QMG). Dr. Porter has pro­vid­ed valu­able sup­port, includ­ing coor­di­nat­ing care with spe­cial­ists, which has eased the fam­i­ly’s stress. His abil­i­ty to lis­ten and con­nect with the kids helps them feel com­fort­able dis­cussing their health, build­ing trust over time. The fam­i­ly is grate­ful for Dr. Porter’s com­pas­sion­ate care, know­ing their chil­dren are always in good hands.
