Francesco Aiello, MD, and Sandra Aiello, CNP, have been UMass Memorial Health caregivers for more than a decade. With the vision and support of their children, John and Maeve, the Aiello family is giving back to the institution where their family has both given and received care. Every holiday season, the family makes a donation to the UMass Memorial Children's Medical Center for staff to put towards their area of greatest need.
