2024 Provider of the Year—Ravi Saripalli, MD 

Dr. Saripalli prioritizes comfort during all patient visits. He takes the time to warmly welcome patients and ask about their well-being. His attentive approach to a patient's health concerns demonstrates his compassion and dedication. Dr. Saripalli advocates for follow-up appointments to ensure that a patient's concerns are fully resolved or to discuss subsequent steps. He is an exceptional doctor who continually goes the extra mile.

2024 Employee of the Year—Stacey Tyree, Administration 

Stacey, executive assistant, consistently surpasses expectations in her routine duties as well as in numerous additional initiatives. For the Ambassador's fundraising dinner event, she committed herself to guaranteeing its success and enhancing the funds raised for reinvestment into MBSH. Stacey embodies Our BJC Values through her substantial and meaningful contributions.

2024 Leader of the Year—Aaron Turner, Emergency Medical Services 

Aaron, EMS manager, consistently embodies our BJC values in every aspect of his work. He serves as an exemplary leader who demonstrates these values on a daily basis. Recently, Aaron collaborated with a colleague to cover a shift for another district that had experienced a loss within their team. He assisted in managing their calls and provided support to their employees as they navigated their grief.

Total Knee Replacement Surgery at Missouri Baptist Sullivan Hospital Helped Relieve Years of Chronic Pain for Bourbon, Mo. Resident

Our knees tend to show more wear and tear as we age, including soreness, aching, and general discomfort from simple daily movements like walking, exercising, and even standing. One of the common underlying causes of knee pain is osteoarthritis, which occurs as the cartilage in the joint deteriorates causing inflammation. Bourbon resident Mike Johnson, 52, had been battling chronic knee pain in his right knee due to osteoarthritis since around age 40. He had resorted to receiving cortisone injections while under the care of an orthopedic specialist in Washington, Mo., which helped for a few years.
