PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Dr. Aaron Brothers, a board-certified Urologist, has joined Urology Professional Services of Berkshire Medical Center (BMC) and is accepting new patients.

Dr. Brothers, a US Army veteran, provides comprehensive care for conditions affecting the kidneys, urinary system, bladder, adrenal glands, urethra, and male reproductive organs, and male fertility. He has received extensive training in robotic surgery and looks forward to being able to offer this type of service to patients in the Berkshires.

Dr. Brothers received his medical degree from Tufts University School of Medicine in Medford and then moved south, completing his surgical internship at Walter Reed Army Medical Center and his urology residency at Walter Reed National Military Center.

He then lived in Georgia, where he practiced at Dwight D. Eisenhower Army Medical Center and Tifton Regional Medical Center.

Dr. Brothers explains that his approach to patient care is simple:

"I treat all patients with dignity, empathy and respect, and I seek to provide safe and effective urologic care that is individually tailored to the needs of my patients," Brothers said.

Dr. Brothers focuses on "providing quality care and following the golden rule." In his free time, Dr. Brothers enjoys almost any outdoor activity. He skis, camps, and mountain bikes. He and his wife enjoy sailing, and he has been working on his pilot's license.

"After spending the last eleven years serving in the Army and living away from New England, my wife and I are excited to be coming home and look forward to setting down new roots," he said.

Housing Secretary Edward Augustus cuts the ribbon at The First on Thursday with housing officials and Mayor Peter Marchetti, state Sen. Paul Mark and state Rep. Tricia Farley-Bouvier.

PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The holidays are here and several community members are celebrating it with the opening of two affordable housing initiatives.

"This is a day to celebrate," Hearthway CEO Eileen Peltier said during the ribbon-cutting on Thursday.

The celebration was for nearly 40 supportive permanent housing units; nine at "The First" located within the Zion Lutheran Church, and 28 on West Housatonic Street. A ceremony was held in the new Housing Resource Center on First Street, which was funded by the American Rescue Plan Act.

The apartments will be leased out by Hearthway, with ServiceNet as a partner.

Prior to the ribbon-cutting, public officials and community resource personnel were able to tour the two new permanent supported housing projects — West Housatonic Apartments and The First Street Apartments and Housing Resource Center.

The First Street location has nine studio apartments that are about 300 square feet and has a large community center. The West Housatonic Street location will have 28 studio units that range between 300 to 350 square feet. All units can be adapted to be ADA accessible.

The West Housatonic location is still under construction with the hope to have it completed by the middle of January, said Chris Wilett, Hearthway development associate.
