We’re so proud to have been recognized by Coastal Virginia Magazine as part of their 2020 Annual Giving Back and Community Impact Awards honoring the Riverside Foundation as a nonprofit committed to making Eastern Virginia a better place for all.
“Riverside achieves its mission by going far beyond what others may call ‘good’ enough. This higher standard of care comes with a cost, which is not compensated, but Riverside unwaveringly strides past the financial obstacles to achieve its mission.”—Theresa Emory, M.D., donor, Pathologist at Peninsula Pathology Associates.
Riverside’s priority is to provide the highest quality of care, regardless of a patient’s insurance coverage or financial capabilities. Riverside
is also dedicated to ensuring the patient is served beyond treatment facility walls.
