Roger Bates
Physical Therapist Assistant
8 Years on the Drake Team

"I've worked in health care for approximately 30 years. Of all the various settings I have worked, Drake Center is one of the most rewarding. From physicians on down, the staff exhibit a real concern not only for patients, but for Drake and its mission. I've worked in other facilities in various departments from a dishwasher, a CNA to physical therapist assistant. Drake has put some of the best qualities that each had to offer and combined them into one."

24 Years on the Drake Team

"Working at Drake Center has given me great personal satisfaction. Although my position as Director of Plant Operations is not directly associated with patient care, I feel that I am part of the extraordinary outcomes that result from a coordinated effort of Drake Center's dedicated associates. Drake associates and patients are like family to me, some of which I have known for the entire 24 years that I have had the privilege of being employed at Drake Center."
