Dr. Pondt also applauded her mentor and founder of the ACOHA practice, Maithili Rao. “Dr. Rao’s vision, and attention to the minutest details and her ability to build people, processes to get things done, be fair and be patient-focused is second to none.” We see ourselves as the community-based oncology delivery arm of Atlantic. For those of you who know our practice, we are already at 4 locations – in Springfield, West Orange, Morristown, and Hackettstown and have plans to continually grow. Maithili’s ability to think big and execute and be deliberate and responsive to patient needs is something all of us can learn. Dr. Pondt shared, “Maithili, you are an inspiration to all of us.”
Additionally, Dr. Pondt recognized Allison Acre, who worked tirelessly to build the lab and the lab partners, and obtain the state licensing for the lab, as well as Melissa Rivera who coordinated across functions to make sure patient care was not compromised as the construction of the new lab was completed.
