HSC Anniversary May 2025
An evening of elegance and gratitude unfolded Saturday, May 3 as Heart Smart Centre marked 16 ‘sweet’ years of exceptional cardiac care with a chic cocktail celebration. The event brought together an inspiring mix of patients, doctors, devoted staff, family, friends, and well-wishers, all paying tribute to Dr Claudine Lewis and her establishment of the clinic as a testament to her unwavering commitment to heart health.
During the celebrations hosted at the Montego Bay Yacht Club, nicely swanked up by Tai Flora Luxe, Lewis was honoured by both the Mayor of Montego Bay Richard Vernon as well as Member of Parliament Dr Horace Chang, plus colleagues and patients. She was recognised for her years of dedication with glowing testimonials, lauding her and the staff’s expertise, compassion, and profound impact on the lives of their patients.
With heartfelt toasts over vino from Select Brands, and heart-healthy bites from Rainforest Caribbean, the evening pulsated with laughter, and the warm embrace of appreciation.
