Drs. Kenneth Lipow and Scott Thornton, nurse Alida Shea, Executive Director of Clinical Operations Gina Calder, and auxiliary members Rita Crispino and Maria Watson will pair up with professional dancers in a good-natured dance contest during the fundraising event.
Proceeds from the gala will support the waiting room in the future ambulatory surgery center at Bridgeport Hospital’s Park Avenue outpatient campus in Trumbull, the Dr. Tom Kennedy Toy Closet at the hospital, nursing scholarships, equipment for Ahlbin Rehabilitation Centers and grants to benefit the well-being of patients.
The gala will also serve as a welcoming event for the physicians of PriMed, the large multispecialty medical group that affiliated with Bridgeport Hospital by joining Yale New Haven Health System’s Northeast Medical Group last year.
The gala is co-chaired by auxiliary president Bonnie Molloy of Fairfield, Amparo Castillo of Monroe and Mary Ellen Bertini of Stratford.

Tickets range from $150 to $500 and a portion of each ticket is tax deductible.
“Working together, we can make a real difference for Bridgeport Hospital and the community of patients we serve", Molloy said.
