Mark is an extraordinary person who consistently displays compassion, emotion and support to his coworkers and his patients with honesty and integrity.

Mark is a dedicated family member as a single father of six children and grandfather of 2.  During the summer months he is always off and running to one ball game or another, and yet still finds time to volunteer at his local fire department as the EMS Captain.
