Mammographer Honored

The Guardian Angel program gives patients and families the opportunity to make a donation in appreciation of a physician, team member, volunteer or department that made a difference in their healthcare experience. A recognition ceremony is held for every Guardian Angel gift – giving special honor to those who go above and beyond. With the help of St. Luke’s Foundation, these gifts help fund programs and equipment that add to the quality of care at UnityPoint Health – Cedar Rapids.

A grateful patient wanted to do something special to recognize the exceptional care she received at St. Luke’s Breast & Bone Health, so a Guardian Angel donation was made, and message provided. 

Guardian Angel:

  • Shelly Oehlert, mammographer

Message from the patient:

“Shelly has helped me for the last eight years. Thank you for taking care of me when I get my mammograms each year. My anxiety is off the charts each time I have my screening since my mother died of breast cancer 13 years ago. You have made the process so much better for me. You’re my angel.”
