The Surgical Services Department at Meadowlands Hospital in Secaucus held a “Welcome Home” luncheon for Dr. Jose Chavez-Cacao. Dr. Chavez, an OB/Gyn and a Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Army Reserves, recently returned from a posting in Tikrit, Iraq after three months there. This was his third tour of duty. He was stationed at the 345 Combat Support Hospital in Camp Speicher. During his assignment, Surgical Services sent many “care packages” to him and his staff. Pictured with Dr. Chavez, left to right are nurses Linda Gentile, Dr. Chavez, Joyce Wright, Belen Fajardo and Adriene Spaziani.
