St. Anne’s partners with Hasbro Children’s

FALL RIVER – St. Anne’s Hospital recently began a collaboration with Hasbro Children’s Hospital, a member of the Lifespan health system. Through the partnership, children and adolescents from the Fall River-New Bedford are given access to Hasbro Children’s Hospital pediatric specialists in their own community, who have begun to see patients at St. Anne’s.

“We are proud to bring Hasbro Children’s Hospital specialty services to Saint Anne’s to meet the needs of children living in southeastern Massachusetts and nearby Rhode Island,” said Craig A. Jesiolowski, president of Saint Anne’s Hospital, in a statement.

Jesiolowski pointed out that children with certain complex medical needs who require more advanced care would be able to travel to Hasbro, 20 miles from Fall River, rather than making the 50-mile trip to Boston.

The three Hasbro Children’s Hospital specialists who are treating patients at St. Anne’s are Dr. Pei-Chi Wu, developmental-behavioral pediatrician, Dr. Carolina S. Cerezo, pediatric gastroenterologist, and Dr. James W. Ziegler, pediatric cardiologist.
