FAMILY OF ROTARY

Our membership cares deeply about the needs and concerns of our members. We don’t want to miss an opportunity to reach out in friendship when such concerns arise. The chairperson of this committee is Lynne Lindsey and all news should be directed to her at lynnehlindsay@outlook.com

President's Message
The Secret Sauce

Have you ever thought about how our meeting’s come together?

The tables, chairs and banners do not magically appear. Every Thursday this group arrives early for set up and leaves late to dismantle. If you want to give them a hand, I am certain they would not turn it down.

One of the great things about being President is observing all the behind-the-scenes magic.

That my friends is why Roswell Rotary Rocks!

He completed residency and fellowship training at UPMC in Pittsburgh, PA and medical school at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, PA. His research on the treatment of cerebrovascular disease has resulted in novel surgical techniques and improvements in patient safety and satisfaction. Dr. Zussman is passionate about providing safe, high-quality patient care. He is proud to have recently become a part of the Atlanta family, along with his wife, four children, and very-sweet but not-so-smart Labrador retriever, Adelaide.
