Monday, February 16, 2009
Jersey City Medical Center is mourning the loss of a doctor that officials described as a "model resident," who had gone to Jackson, Miss. to be with her fiancé for Valentine's Day, but instead was killed in a horrific car crash last Wednesday night.
According to Jackson police, a Mercedes Benz collided head-on with a Chevrolet truck carrying Dr. Lisa Dedousis, an internal medical resident at the Jersey City Medical Center, and her fiancé, Dr. Mark Pogue, a third-year resident at the University of Mississippi's West Jackson Family Medical Clinic.
Mark Rabson, a spokesman for the Jersey City Medical Center said Dedousis, a first-year resident, was well liked by hospital staff.
"She was an outstanding medical resident and doctor," Rabson said. "When staff found out about the tragic accident we were all visibly moved and upset. She was a model resident and doctor and our thoughts go out to family and friends."
Rabson said the hospital is planning a remembrance service.
Dedousis' brother, Dr. John Dedousis, is a physician on the staff of the Jersey City Medical Center and has a private practice in Bayonne. Family members declined to comment yesterday.
The truck carrying Dedousis and Pogue crashed into an apartment building retaining wall and exploded, according to reports. Both were pronounced dead at the scene.
Emergency responders extricated Karen Irby, who was driving the Mercedes and her husband, Stuart. Witnesses said the Mercedes had been going "pretty fast."
