Readers Write: Give N. Shore staff more credit

The Island Now

Let me start off with the fact that I had surgery at North Shore Hospital in Manhasset which is a member hospital of Northwell Health.

This occurred on Jan. 3 and is my fourth surgery in about 18 months.

My first  was due to an aggressive prostrate cancer and was recommended by my primary physician Dr. Doris Berland and was operated on by my urologist Dr. Barry Goldberg of Advanced Urology in Manhasset.

Due to expert care and his medical staff I’m in remission.

He did another procedure to correct another problem.

My next two procedures were administered by Dr. Angelo Procaccino of Northwell Health of Great Neck for hernias.

I found the nurses in the hospital kind, caring and concerned with what I was going through.

I also found this true in the operating room with the doctors, nurses and medical personal who made me feel at ease and safe.

I think not enough of us give credit to all those in the medical field for what they all do caring and trying to save lives.

In closing let me say this, kudos, for all you did for me.
