Service That Goes Above and Beyond

Dallas Griffin, Emergency Room, Orthopedic Surgery

Brooklyn College student and dancer Dallas Griffin is a busy guy, and like many busy young men, he simply does not have the time for healthcare setbacks. So, he battled through ongoing knee problems on his own. “I had dealt with pain and the knee misaligning,” Mr. Griffin recalls. “Typically, I could work it back in place and keep going, though it certainly wasn’t getting better over time.” One night last year, after a physically strenuous workout, the knee locked up on him. This time was different, and there was no realigning or making it work.

For Convenience, Quality and the Intangible Brooklyn Vibe

Sandy and Louise Mattingly, Mammography, Primary Care

After living most of their lives in Manhattan, Sandy and Louise Mattingly moved to Brooklyn in 2005. It was for all the usual reasons — the kids had moved there, and they wanted in on the then burgeoning Brooklyn “vibe.” But, one thing they didn’t change was their healthcare. That remained Manhattan-centric even though their home was a block from �鶹��.

Care Right in the Neighborhood

William Mandeville, OB/GYN, Pediatrics

“Kelvin is our first child so my wife wanted to deliver at a hospital close to home,” said William Mandeville. “I did some research and to my surprise I discovered that The �鶹�� (which was right across from our home), had all the modern equipment with some maternity rooms that overlooked Fort Greene Park. After hearing recommendations from trusted family members and friends, we went with �鶹�� to deliver our baby and it proved to be the right choice.

Healing Fast

Rick Schwab, General/Robotic Surgery

Rick was more than pleased with the outcome of his robotic hernia surgery

“My experience with hernia surgery at The �鶹�� was truly outstanding. From the moment I received the initial diagnosis to the follow-up care after surgery, I felt supported and cared for every step of the way.

Happy and Free

Lorenzo Phillips, Bariatric Surgery

Changes in habits and mindset help this bariatric patient find success

“Before my surgery, I was just too heavy, and it felt like nothing I did made a difference. I was at my wit's end — I just couldn’t get any smaller. I was trying everything,” said �鶹�� patient Lorenzo Phillips. “I’d eat a plant-based diet, try a program like Weight Watchers or exercise more. But I'm older now, and I just can't keep up with that pace.
