Proud to share this powerful story from Duke Health CEO Dr. David Zaas about how surviving leukemia shaped his approach to patient‑centered leadership.
Duke Health's new CEO survived leukemia with his 13-year-old son as his bone marrow donor. Now he's leading with that experience. "I want the same standards of care for everyone that comes in contact with Duke Health that I would want for my own family." duke.is/m/p9cn
