Imperial Structured Settlements Welcomes Cleveland Clinic’s Dr. Mercedes Dullum into Their “Hearts”

Imperial Finance & Trading (“Imperial”) employees, through its affiliate Imperial Structured Settlements, recently gathered to listen to a lecture presented by cardiac surgeon Mercedes K.C. Dullum, M. D. of the Cleveland Clinic located in Weston, Florida.
Having previously listened to her speak, Imperial’s Senior Vice President Deborah Benaim snagged the first opportunity available to have Dr. Dullum as a guest. “Mercedes has shown great perseverance throughout her career as one of the few women in the country that can perform minimally invasive robotic surgery. We are thrilled at the opportunity to hear from a true pioneer in such a male-dominated field.”
Dullum, the only female board-certified cardiothoracic surgeon in South Florida, spoke for an hour on her life’s accomplishments. Her speech touched on her close family upbringing in Jamaica, to her extensive medical schooling and practice in Washington D.C., ending with her move to Florida to join the Cleveland Clinic.
At the core of the presentation beat her true passion: the human heart. Not only by sharing her years of schooling and experience, but also through wisdom and career experiences, Dr. Dullum educated over 120 employees on the important role a healthy heart plays in a happy and successful life.
“I am so happy you guys asked me to come,” Dullum expressed. “It’s great to see such a turnout at events like this; it means a lot of you are concerned about your health.” That concern demonstrated itself in a flood of follow-up questions from many who attended.
