The Circle of Mercy in Action! Dr. Colleen O’Neil Davis
The Circle of Mercy in Action! Mercy Board of Trustees member Dr. Colleen O’Neil Davis, MD, MPH, P’12, P‘15, P’18 is Chief of the Pediatric Emergency Department at University of Rochester Golisano Children’s Hospital. She is on the front lines caring for sick and injured children, as well as preparing the pediatric emergency room for a potential community-wide surge and/or second wave of illnesses. According to Dr. Davis, COVID-19 has changed the way the hospital and its employees are practicing and living in many ways. Two of Dr. Davis’ daughters are home living with her during this time, so she is extra vigilant to keep them safe given the nature of her work. Dr. Davis truly loves her job and we are so grateful she has committed her life to helping others, particularly the most vulnerable in our society – our children.
