The Charlotte Business Journal recently spotlighted Novant Health’s plans to expand pediatric care throughout the Charlotte region.

The impact of those plans is evident in the story of 9-year-old Gabe — an avid music lover and horseback rider — who has cerebral palsy and short gut syndrome, among other issues. He has undergone about 15 surgeries and now visits the hospital at least once a year.

“Once we got here, we felt like that sense of calm. It’s OK. We’re here. They’ll help us. They’ll help Gabe,” Gabe’s mother, Stephanie Pitman, said in the article.

“As a parent, that’s all you want. When your child is sick, you just want somebody you can trust that will do the best for your child.”
