Message from Thomas A. Malone, MD, MBA

Since its inception, the Harper-Hutzel Guild has served as a partner with Harper University Hospital and Hutzel Women’s Hospital in creating a legacy of serving our patients, staff, visitors and the surrounding community. Together, along the way, we have made significant enhancements for our patients, our facility and the community.

The Guild’s legacy can be seen through the various donations they have made to our hospital: The renovation of the Physician’s Dining room; the renovation of the visitor’s surgical waiting lounge; the Hutzel lobby and, the annual Community Baby Shower to name a few — their contributions have been immeasurable.

We invite you to join or renew your membership in the Harper-Hutzel Guild today. The Guild is an organization that will provide you with fulfillment, enjoyment and a remarkable sense of pride as you give back to the community.

Thank you for your support.
