  • Brancato was in disbelief when she detected a lump and immediately scheduled an appointment with North Shore Medical Center gynecologist Julie McCullough, M.D., who then referred her to the Mass General/North Shore Breast Health Center in Danvers for a mammogram and biopsy. Brancato was not new to health challenges, having been diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis at the age of two.

Patients should be proactive and participate in the decision process in health treatments,” says Brancato. “Most important to me is to have a physician who is open to my concerns and takes the time to really listen, especially if I know I will need to work with him or her through an illness.”

  • This past January, the hospital partnered with the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to launch the North Shore’s first TeleSANE sexual assault treatment program, which virtually connects staff at the hospital’s facility with offsite, trauma-informed experts — including SANE nurses — using live video technology as they treat patients in real time. Working with the Department of Public Health, we knew this was the only area that didn’t have a SANE site in the entire state,” she said. “For the last decade-plus, the onus has been on the survivor to get themselves to Boston for care, and we just know that’s not trauma-informed.” Hassan also stressed that the center is operating as usual — albeit with additional safety precautions — during the COVID-19 health crisis and encouraged victims not to hesitate to come in for care.
