Provider of the Month, July 2019: Fredrick Huang, MD
Congratulations to Fredrick Huang,MD, an orthopedic surgeon at Valley and at Proliance Orthopedic Associates.

He knew about the quadruple aim before the quadruple aim was a thing-relentlessly pursuing quality, looking out for patient experience, taking in costs as a factor of patient care, and taking care of the healthcare team around him—nurses, pharmacists, physical therapists…all of whom speak so highly of Fred and the work that he does." Thanks, Dr. Huang, for all that you do for your colleagues and for Valley's patients.
