Annual Party: Dive Deeper Into Medical Innovations for a Smarter Future

Let’s be real—we’d been counting down to January 31, 2026, for weeks! That’s the night Periodmed and Yonker Group finally gathered for our big annual party gala, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. As YonkerHealth’s cutting-edge independent sub-brand (we’re all about medical devices that make a difference), partnering with the group to embrace our theme—“Dive deeper into medical innovations for a smarter future”—felt extra meaningful. This wasn’t just a regular party; it was a chance to hang with our teammates, chat with Yonker’s leadership, and even catch up with some of our awesome partners. The vibe? Pure excitement mixed with pride—pride that we’re part of a team that’s pushing healthcare forward, one innovation at a time. As we mingled over drinks before things kicked off, you could feel the energy in the room: everyone was talking about what we’d accomplished last year and brainstorming (okay, maybe just daydreaming a little) about the cool stuff we’ll tackle next.

Smiles, Selfies, and Games that Brought Us Closer 

Before the main event started, the venue was already chaos—in the best way possible! The registration area was smooth sailing (shoutout to our amazing volunteers who greeted everyone with grins), and right next to it was the photo booth—let’s just say our team went all out. We were striking poses, holding up silly Year of the Horse props (since 2026 is the Year of the Horse!), and snapping selfies that’ll definitely end up in our team Slack channel. But the best part? The warm-up games! We didn’t just stand around making small talk—we paired up for these fun, collaborative challenges. Think medical-themed puzzles (yes, we even made work-related games feel playful) and little group tasks that felt a lot like the cross-departmental teamwork we do every day for product launches. They called it “Linked Blessings,” and it was such a nice touch—reminding us that innovation isn’t just about R&D or sales alone; it’s about all of us working together. Laughter was everywhere, and by the time the party was ready to start, we were all feeling more connected than ever.

Celebrating Our Amazing Talents and Teamwork 

Let’s talk about the performances—because our Periodmed crew brought it! We had three acts, and each one felt so true to who we are. First up: a cover of No More Hesitation by the iconic Hong Kong rock band Beyond, performed by our group of young engineers. Wow—they sang with so much passion, it gave everyone chills! That song’s all about pushing forward without holding back, and honestly? That’s exactly how we feel about medical innovation—no hesitation to try new things, no fear of big challenges. Next, we had Chang An Dance, a beautiful Chinese-style routine choreographed by our top sales and operations teams (plus a few designers who wanted in on the fun). They wore traditional outfits with little modern twists, and their moves told this story of honoring our roots while moving forward—just like how we blend time-tested medical knowledge with cutting-edge tech. And last but definitely not least: the CUTE HORSE DANCE! Our designers and admins went full-on silly with this one—exaggerated dance moves, funny horse costumes, and energy that had the whole room laughing and clapping along. It was the perfect reminder that even when we’re deep in ultrasound product tweaks or patient monitor upgrades, we know how to have fun—and that joy fuels our work.

The Tear-Jerking Part: Celebrating Our Rockstars

The annual awards ceremony was hands down one of the best parts of the night—we got to honor the people who make Periodmed awesome. We appreciate all those who contributes to annual results and product innovations. Our team work is exactly what “dive deeper” means—going the extra mile to create tools that actually help patients. Then there were the excellent staff, including Zoe Bi, a sales manager who always goes above and beyond to understand what our clients need (and advocates for product tweaks to make it happen), and Nancy Chen, marketing manager who streamlined our processes. When each awardee spoke, they didn’t just talk about their own success—they thanked their teammates, which just made the whole thing feel like a big family celebration.

Looking Ahead to 2026: We’re Fired Up to Innovate 

As the party wound down (and we were all full from the amazing dinner), the conversation turned to 2026—and let’s just say we’re fired up. With YonkerHealth Group’s support, we’re ready to make some serious breakthroughs this year! We’re not just sticking to what we know—we’re diving deeper into ultrasound products (think AI integration to make diagnostics even more precise), upgrading our patient monitors (more portable, better connectivity for remote care), and even revamping our customer service (hello, a new digital platform where providers can get help instantly). None of this would be possible without Yonker’s backing—they give us the resources, the research facilities, and the freedom to dream big. 

As we raised our glasses for a final toast, everyone was talking about how excited they are to get back to work. 2026 is going to be the year we turn our ideas into real, life-changing medical tech—and last night’s party was the perfect kickoff. Here’s to diving deeper, working together, and making the future of healthcare smarter—one innovation at a time!
