I've had three knee operations at my neighborhood Glen Cove Hospital on Long Island. My wife and son have also had procedures there. We are all satisfied patients.
I was turned on to Glen Cove Hospital by my good friend Dr. David Berger who is head of anesthesiology there.
This great local hospital was founded before World War II to serve a blend of working class as well as wealthy patients.
I'm writing about this wonderful place because, most recently, a good friend's life may well have been saved because of its unique characteristics. Suffice it to say that when he got to the emergency room they were no delays and there was great immediate care.
In Dr. Berger's words, the strength of the hospital has always been a very dedicated and engaged group of trustees who not only endowed the hospital but are also interested in its focus, scope and everyday activities.
In the words of my friend's wife, the entire staff, and that includes security, custodial, dietary, administration, aides, nurses, AND doctors, is kind, friendly, caring and professional. The facility is immaculate. In one phrase, "Top Notch". Please thank them for me.
Dr. Berger confirms that Glen Cove's defining quality has always been a devoted and caring staff, coupled with community flavor and connections.
A word to the wise, when considering a Nassau County hospital you will be best served by this under-the-radar jewel!
