December 2025
News letter
December brings the quiet close of another year, a time to reflect on what we’ve built, finalize ongoing work, and prepare for a fresh start. December is a busy month, but it also gives us a moment to slow down, look at what we’ve accomplished, and appreciate the work we do together every day. We’re grateful for another year and ready for what’s ahead.
Our website got a fresh new look!
Our updated website brings PDG’s new brand colors and visual identity to life, with a cleaner layout and a smoother experience for patients and families. The menu and navigation are now simpler and easier for everyone to use. We’ve also connected the website with our social media to keep everything working seamlessly together. We’re still polishing a few things and plan to do a new photoshoot next year, but the fresh look already reflects who we are and where we’re going as a brand.

Update your email signature We began standardizing PDG’s email signatures a few months ago to support our new brand identity and keep all communications consistent. This is a friendly reminder for anyone who hasn’t updated theirs yet. A unified signature helps us maintain a professional PDG brand. If you need help updating your signature, the Marketing Team is here to assist.
Thank you for helping us maintain a consistent PDG brand.
