Deep Connections to CHA
Anne St. Goar, MD and Shippen Page have a deep and passionate connection to Cambridge Health Alliance, which started nearly fifty years ago.
“I first discovered CHA when I was a second year medical student at Harvard Medical School,” said a smiling Dr. Anne St. Goar. “The following year, I completed a month-long psychiatry rotation where I learned about all the tremendous work CHA does to serve its patients, many of whom face enormous mental health challenges on top of dealing with major issues like housing and food insecurity. That was 46 years ago. I became a devoted CHA supporter and haven’t stopped since.”

“In the seventies and eighties, I was very involved in child abuse prevention and intervention. CHA was on the forefront of these issues,” explained Mr. Page. “Back then, as it does today, CHA embodied social justice and medical excellence. Cambridge was changing with growing disparities and CHA stepped in to serve and advocate for the community’s marginalized populations.”
