November 2007
Dear Friends,
Every day, as I go through the stack of correspondence that crosses my desk, nothing
gives me greater satisfaction or pleasure than to hear from patients who have come to
NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital for their care. Often, they write to acknowledge their
physicians and nurses; other times they express gratitude to other caregivers or
employees who have made a difference during their stay. And, sometimes, our patients
and family members also write to let us know how we can do better, and we welcome
those suggestions.
These Letters from Home prompted us to reach out to some of the patients and family
members who have written recently. Behind each letter is a story, and in the pages that
follow you will meet the patients and, in some cases, their families, as well as the
Hospital staff who inspired them to write.
For every letter of thanks that we receive, we also know that there are countless other
instances where our staff have improved the lives of our patients—whether through the
delivery of superb clinical care, providing a clean and safe environment, or offering a
word of kindness and encouragement. We are proud of our Hospital and the employees
who enable us to provide our patients with the highest quality of care.
Sincerely,
Herbert Pardes, MD
President and Chief Executive Officer

In 1998, Eleanore Bednarsh experiencedheart irregularities and an overwhelmingfatigue. Her gynecologist, William Ledger,M.D., suspected anemia, and referred Mrs.Bednarsh to Orli R. Etingin, M.D., MedicalDirector of the Iris Cantor Women’s HealthCenter. Mrs. Bednarsh, Lower School Headat a private New York City school, developed an immediate rapport with Dr. Etingin, appreciating her desire to speakwith both her and her husband Gary inorder to get a complete picture of hermedical history.
“Dr. Etingin made me feel like shewanted to get to know me as an individualand not just what you see in the recordsand test results,” says Mrs. Bednarsh. “Shealso asked for my opinion, and my sense of what was going on. I was really blownaway by her care.”
Dr. Etingin recommended an iron infusion, and within 24 hours, Mrs. Bednarshsays, “I felt like a completely new person.”
In 2004, Mrs. Bednarsh began feelinglightheaded and thought it might be theanemia returning. “Dr. Etingin insisted Icome in right away. She told me in a verycalm way that she wanted me to see Dr. Erica Jones, a cardiologist at the Center. Dr. Jones made room in her schedule to see me that same day.”
Dr. Jones determined Mrs. Bednarsh hasmitral valve regurgitation, unrelated to theanemia. The condition has been managedwith medication and is closely watchedwith regular echocardiograms.
“Dr. Jones gave me clear information,delivered in a way that was so reassuring,”says Mrs. Bednarsh. “She listened to myanxieties and considered no questioninsignificant.”
Mrs. Bednarsh’s high regard for her twophysicians is entirely mutual. “Eleanore andI have developed a lovely relationship overthe years,” notes Dr. Etingin. “I know whatworries her and what she’s thinking evenwhen she doesn’t tell me, because I’ve seenher through so many things.
“When she developed the cardiac problem, Erica was right there to see her,”adds Dr. Etingin. “I think that Eleanorefeels very comfortable that we’re both here to take care of her together.” >

The beauty of the IrisCantor Women’s HealthCenter is that physicians,such as Dr. Erica Jonesand Dr. Orli Etingin, can effortlessly collaborateto provide primary andspecialty care for patients.

As any busy mother juggling work and family knows, sometimes you just run out of time. Faith Medford faced such a situationwhen she learned that her son Hadah, 5, due to leave shortly for summer camp inRochester, New York, would not be acceptedwithout his immunization records.
“I hadn’t understood the urgency of getting those records,” says Mrs. Medford,whose son has asthma and receives care atthe Audubon Practice in upper Manhattan,one of the primary care sites in NewYork-Presbyterian’s Ambulatory Care Network.
“I was beside myself with worry. I knewthat it might be difficult to get his recordsquickly. That’s when Carol Pafundi just cameout of nowhere.”
Carol Pafundi is a nurse practitioner at theAudubon Practice and a longtime employeeof NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital withnearly 40 years of service. “Carol was calmas I told her my situation and she said, ‘It’snot a problem. Let me see what I can do totake care of this and help you.’”
Ms. Pafundi quickly gathered Hadah’srecords and wrote the prescriptions formedications he would need to take withhim. “She even went so far as to call theVolunteers of America Camp to make surethat they had received all the informationneeded,” says Mrs. Medford. “I so appreciatedher patience and for not blaming me ortelling me I should have done it sooner. I was just overwhelmed and grateful.”
Adds Jeffrey Medford, “So many timespeople complain when things go wrong. It’salso important to say thank you for the smallthings people do that mean so much.” >
I would like to express mygratitude on having met one
of th e most patient, understanding and kind nursesin your facility at 21 Audubon...Carol Pafundi is an exampleof h ow a little kindness and
a lot of patience goes a long way.

At the age of 42, Douglas Parbery, an amateurcompetitive bodybuilder, was, as he describes,“as healthy as a horse.” But all that changedwhen he started experiencing unusual symptoms. “My heart was palpitating and beating very hard with an irregular rhythm. I was restless all the time and very agitated,”recalls Mr. Parbery. Diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, he underwent cardioversion, a procedure that delivers an electrical shock tothe heart to restore a normal rhythm. Whatwas causing the abnormal rhythm, however,was a leaking aortic valve that would eventuallyneed repair or replacement. “We were in com-plete shock,” says his wife, April.
“That was my entrance into middle age,”says Mr. Parbery. “It was a bit of a rude awakening, but I accepted it and came to terms with it.”
When it became clear surgery was necessary, the Parberys came to NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell in May 2006 to
consult with cardiothoracic surgeon Karl H.Krieger, M.D.. “Dr. Krieger and his staff werecompletely available to us, answering all of ourquestions,” says Mr. Parbery.
“Dr. Krieger explained the different typesof valves—the bovine, the pig, or the artificialvalve. I took the cow valve—maybe that explainsmy sudden penchant for clover,” he laughs.
While Mr. Parbery can make light lookingback on his surgery, he says that after meetingDr. Krieger and his team, he went into theprocedure confident that it would be successful.
Says Dr. Krieger, “Doug Parbery was quiteyoung to require this kind of heart surgery, buthe was very fit going into it and did very wellpostoperatively.”
“All of the staff were gracious and friendlyand did their job with the utmost level of professionalism,” says Mr. Parbery. Dr. Kriegerencouraged Mr. Parbery to resume physicalactivities once his recovery was complete. “He was quite adamant about that, and though I don’t see myself getting back toheavy weightlifting, I’m anxious to work outand start playing sports again.”>

Teammembers include: (back row,left to right) Irene Malloy,Nurse Practitioner; Dr. Charles Mack, cardiothoracic surgeon; VidaSarmiento, CardiothoracicIntensive Care Unit(CTICU) nurse; Dr. Gregory Kerr, anesthesiologist; (seated)Mariafe Castillo, SeniorStaff Nurse, CTICU; andCynthia Bensley, R.N., cardiothoracic surgery.
My highest regards go to my surgeon, Dr. Karl Krieger,
and his nurses. They are truly a world-class group of
professionals. But I also want to make mention of
the rest of the staff, from those who tended to me in
the step-down unit, to the folks who transported me
through the hospital, to the food service staff. They
were all gracious and friendly, and helped make my
experience much more comfortable and tolerable.

Dear Dr. Pardes,My sincere thanks for the compassionate care my mother-in-lawreceived during her hospital stay—from the emergency room to therehabilitation center; from the volunteers, to the aides, to the nurses,to the doctors. They were all veryapproachable and accessible. They were patient, gentle and sensitive…they are the number ones.

more poignant than those sent by children. Their handmade artwork
often conveys the depth of their feelings in ways that words cannot describe.

With Mary George’s medical risks so high,it did, indeed, take a team to save her life.At 76 and debilitated with advanced heartdisease, Mrs. George came to NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia, brought by herdaughter-in-law Philomina John, who haslived with Mrs. George since 1980.
“My mother-in-law arrived in theEmergency Department and was treatedvery aggressively for congestive heart failure,”says Mrs. John. “That was the beginning ofher journey to the operating room.”
Cardiologist Kevin G. Dunsky, M.D.,determined that Mrs. George had multi-valve disease, as well as coronary artery disease. “Dr. Dunsky told me that shewould not live more than a week if shedidn’t have surgery immediately,” says Mrs.John. Soon after, cardiothoracic surgeonMichael Argenziano, M.D., replaced hermitral and aortic valves and performed fourcoronary artery bypasses during a six-houroperation.
“A complex surgery of this type requiresincredible, delicate skill in order to have theresult that we had,” says Dr. Dunsky. “Clearlythis was a very high-risk patient who didincredibly well.”
“The surgery was only one componentof Mrs. George’s care, and even that requireddozens of people,” says Dr. Argenziano.“The pre- and postoperative care is equallycritical in getting patients—especially sickolder patients—through the process. Olderpatients can succumb to complications postoperatively, which is why it is so impor-tant to have a tremendous team—with Kevinas her cardiologist, Dr. Desmond Jordan asher anesthesiologist, the ICU staff, the nurses,social workers, physical therapists and every-one that’s involved in managing extremelyfragile patients after a major operation.”
Mrs. George’s situation was furthercomplicated by the fact that she only speaksMalayalam—one of 1,600 Indian dialects.Says Mrs. John, “We were so fortunate tohave a Malayalam-speaking nurse. Whenshe went to the rehabilitation unit, a transla-tor from the Indian embassy was already onhand.”
One month later, Mrs. George wasready to go home—weak, to be sure, buton her way to recovery. “I cannot sayenough about the entire staff—everyonewas so helpful and supportive,” says Mrs.John.“Today Mom is doing great.”>

For more than 30 years, Jim Murphy has battled familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), an inheritedcolorectal cancer syndrome, and for every one of those years, he has enlisted the physicians and healthprofessionals at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital tohelp him stay alive and healthy.
Mr. Murphy, whose grandmother, father, and twoaunts all died from FAP, was diagnosed at the age of15, and since then he has undergone several major colorectal surgeries and chemotherapy. Mr. Murphyfirst saw the late Scott Wadler, M.D., then Director ofthe Solid Tumor Service at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell, who allayed his fears about treatment.Today, the 46-year-old financial analyst is closely followed by Joseph T. Ruggiero, M.D., hematologist/oncologist, Toyooki Sonoda, M.D., colorectal surgeon,and Felice Schnoll-Sussman, M.D., a gastroenterologistwith the Jay Monahan Center for GastrointestinalHealth at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell.
For people who have inherited the FAP mutation, the risk of developing colorectal cancer(without preventive management) is approximately 100 percent. There is no cure, but maintaining constant vigilance with regular checkups, screenings,and preventive treatment can help keep families healthy.
“NewYork-Presbyterian has certainly improved mylife expectancy, and I feel confident about that,” saysMr. Murphy. “What genuinely bothers me the most is
the unknown—and what if my children were to develop this. In that case, NewYork-Presbyterianwould be critical to that care solution.”
“When I learned that my children have a 50 percent chance of inheriting the gene that causes thisdisease, I was devastated,” says his wife, Mary. “Dr.Schnoll-Sussman and Charlene Shultz, the MonahanCenter’s genetic counselor, were able to talk me off theledge. They explained that the disease does not presentitself until adolescence and dissuaded me from havingall of the children tested at the same time.” James, now14, was tested just before his 11th birthday and doesnot carry the gene.
“Colon cancer is not a disease that’s easily discussed,and with kids it’s even more difficult,” notes Mrs. Murphy. “Dr. Schnoll-Sussman was really able to talkto James in terms that a 10-year-old understood. Sheand the genetics counselor were phenomenal.”
The Murphys also appreciate the fact that theMonahan Center provides a full range of multidiscipli-nary specialists and services in gastrointestinal cancerprevention and care in one location. Says Mrs. Murphy,“It makes an already difficult process much easier.”
“The Murphy family is dedicated to making surethat they are receiving a level of care that will be ableto keep them healthy,” says Dr. Schnoll-Sussman.“And with that level of care, it is possible to lead completely normal, healthy lives within the constraintsof the diagnosis.” >

Dr. Felice Schnoll-Sussman,Toral Shah, physician’s
assistant, and the MonahanCenter team provide patients
with access to a range of critically important services—
from gastrointestinal screening and prevention
to treatment and support.
Jacob DeodatoThree months into her pregnancy, Kristen
Deodato underwent emergency gallbladder
surgery, and her developing baby, Jacob,
survived the operation. But two months
later, Kristen and her husband Matthew
received devastating news: An ultrasound
revealed a mass pressing on the baby’s
trachea that was growing very aggressively.
Physicians referred the couple to Morgan
Stanley Children’s Hospital, eventually to
meet with Charles J. Stolar, M.D., Director of
Pediatric Surgery, obstetrician and maternal-
fetal medicine specialist Todd J. Rosen, M.D.,
and Jeffrey A. Ascherman, M.D., Director of
the Craniofacial Center. The mass—
a teratoma—is a rare and usually benign
tumor that would have to be removed quickly
before it cut off his air supply.
“According to the sonograms and MRIs,
the prognosis was grim,” says Mrs. Deodato.
“The first time I met Dr. Stolar, however,
he put us at ease. His outlook was fantastic.
He said, ‘Here is what we can do. Here’s our
plan. We’re experienced with this procedure,
and we’ve done it before.’ He put everything
into perspective and talked us through step
by step.”
Under the auspices of the Center for
Prenatal Pediatrics, several meetings and many
hours of planning preceded the surgery. Dr.
Stolar assembled a diagnostic and treatment
team of 35 physicians, including maternal-
fetal medicine specialists, pediatric surgeons,
anesthesiologists, and neonatologists, 10 nurses,
and six operating room technicians in
preparation for performing an EXIT (ex utero
intrapartum treatment) procedure.
“Because the baby had a large mass on his
neck that could obstruct his airway, we were
concerned that he would not be able to
breathe after he was delivered,” says Dr. Rosen.
“We partially delivered the baby by cesarean
section and that allowed the neonatologists to
intubate him while still on placental life
support so that he would never be without
oxygen. A number of teams representing
various specialties were present to manage the
baby’s acute problems, and then Dr. Stolar
and his team removed the tumor.”
“It’s extraordinary that this medical center
can put together that kind of team in a heart-
beat,” notes Dr. Stolar. “The medical and
surgical talent that could be amassed that
quickly to work on a baby only four pounds
is incredible.”
“Every time I look at Jacob now, I see a
miracle,” says Mr. Deodato. “We didn’t know
if he was going to make it, and if he did,
what condition he would be in. Fortunately,
everything went according to plan.”
“Everyone we met at the Hospital was
just great,” adds Mrs. Deodato, who took
Jacob home two weeks later. “He continues
to get speech and occupational and physical
therapy, but he’s healing beautifully.” >
I was in great hands. Everybody wasjust wonderful. Even though we werein such a dire situation and I washaving a very difficult pregnancy, Dr. Rosen and Dr. Stolar really mademe feel comfortable. They gave me theconfidence to handle Jacob’s surgery.

When babies are born with a complex condition requiring delicate surgery,Dr. Charles Stolar and Dr. Todd Rosen can assemble a team of experts—sometimes 35 strong—on a moment’s notice to prepare for any contingency.

When Sophie Wilmet got the call that her eight-year-old
son Vincent had accidentally been pushed and hit his head
hard on the cement, she raced to his school fearing the
worst. “The teacher heard a big bang and a crack as his
head hit the floor, and Vincent was unconscious for a few
seconds,” says Sophie Wilmet. “The nurse felt that after such
a serious impact, he should be checked by his pediatrician.”
Sophie and her husband Stephane, who are French and
American and have lived in different parts of the world,
immediately saw their pediatrician who performed several
neurological tests. When Vincent began to feel dizzy, he
sent them directly to the Pediatric Emergency Service—
a Level 1 Trauma Center—at the Komansky Center for
Children’s Health at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell.
“As Europeans, we are not used to having staff in such a
big hospital being so nice and welcoming and kid-oriented,”
says Mrs. Wilmet. “Dr. Michele Rosenthal and the pediatric
emergency staff kept Vincent for more than six hours to
monitor his neurological reactions. We were very impressed
by the level of care and the environment. It was such a
positive experience, and we felt we were in very good and
professional hands. He turned out to be fine.”
“I’m glad the Wilmets had such a good experience,”
notes Shari Platt, M.D., Chief of Pediatric Emergency
Medicine. “That’s our goal with each patient who comes
to us for care. Our doctors and nurses are highly skilled in
pediatric emergency medicine. People don’t want to be in
the ER—they aren’t planning to be here. But when they
do have to come, we want to give the best possible care to
the child, and to the whole family.” >

Chairman, Department of Pediatrics
My spouse, Sophie, and I wanted you to know
how impressed and pleased we were with the
friendly, professional, responsive and efficient
visit we had with the pediatric emergency staff,
and in particular, Dr. Michele Rosenthal. We
hope that Dr. Rosenthal’s—and her team’s—
commitment and integrity continues
to be recognized within your department.
A highly skilled pediatric emergency staff, including (seated)

notes Shari Platt, M.D., Chief of Pediatric Emergency
Medicine. “That’s our goal with each patient who comes
to us for care. Our doctors and nurses are highly skilled in
pediatric emergency medicine. People don’t want to be in
the ER—they aren’t planning to be here. But when they
do have to come, we want to give the best possible care to
the child, and to the whole family.” >

For more than 30 years, Jim Murphy has battled familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), an inheritedcolorectal cancer syndrome, and for every one of those years, he has enlisted the physicians and healthprofessionals at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital tohelp him stay alive and healthy.
Mr. Murphy, whose grandmother, father, and twoaunts all died from FAP, was diagnosed at the age of15, and since then he has undergone several major colorectal surgeries and chemotherapy. Mr. Murphyfirst saw the late Scott Wadler, M.D., then Director ofthe Solid Tumor Service at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell, who allayed his fears about treatment.Today, the 46-year-old financial analyst is closely followed by Joseph T. Ruggiero, M.D., hematologist/oncologist, Toyooki Sonoda, M.D., colorectal surgeon,and Felice Schnoll-Sussman, M.D., a gastroenterologistwith the Jay Monahan Center for GastrointestinalHealth at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell.
For people who have inherited the FAP mutation, the risk of developing colorectal cancer(without preventive management) is approximately 100 percent. There is no cure, but maintaining constant vigilance with regular checkups, screenings,and preventive treatment can help keep families healthy.
“NewYork-Presbyterian has certainly improved mylife expectancy, and I feel confident about that,” saysMr. Murphy. “What genuinely bothers me the most is
the unknown—and what if my children were to develop this. In that case, NewYork-Presbyterianwould be critical to that care solution.”
“When I learned that my children have a 50 percent chance of inheriting the gene that causes thisdisease, I was devastated,” says his wife, Mary. “Dr.Schnoll-Sussman and Charlene Shultz, the MonahanCenter’s genetic counselor, were able to talk me off theledge. They explained that the disease does not presentitself until adolescence and dissuaded me from havingall of the children tested at the same time.” James, now14, was tested just before his 11th birthday and doesnot carry the gene.
“Colon cancer is not a disease that’s easily discussed,and with kids it’s even more difficult,” notes Mrs. Murphy. “Dr. Schnoll-Sussman was really able to talkto James in terms that a 10-year-old understood. Sheand the genetics counselor were phenomenal.”
The Murphys also appreciate the fact that theMonahan Center provides a full range of multidiscipli-nary specialists and services in gastrointestinal cancerprevention and care in one location. Says Mrs. Murphy,“It makes an already difficult process much easier.”
“The Murphy family is dedicated to making surethat they are receiving a level of care that will be ableto keep them healthy,” says Dr. Schnoll-Sussman.“And with that level of care, it is possible to lead completely normal, healthy lives within the constraintsof the diagnosis.” >

to treatment and support.

Sister Maria ColabellaAs a nurse for 47 years, Sister Maria Colabellawould often encourage her patients to staypositive and envision a healthy future. “Iapproached my own heart surgery with thatsame idea, saying to myself, ‘This is going toheal me and I’m going to really be well.’ Seeingmyself actually experiencing that convincedme all the more that what I’ve been teachingall these years really does work!” says SisterMaria, who underwent heart valve repair bycardiothoracic surgeon Craig R. Smith, M.D.,at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia.
A Maryknoll Sister who has devoted herlife to nursing and pastoral ministry withpeople who are sick, poor, and homeless inAfrica, Latin America, and the United States,Sister Maria has found herself in need ofcare several times. A survivor of breast cancer twice, she also had heart surgery in1973 to repair an atrial septal defect.
While serving in Peru in 1989, shedeveloped atrial fibrillation associated withother cardiac problems. “Knowing I mightneed further heart surgery in the future, I alsoknew I wanted my care to be with physiciansconnected with NewYork-Presbyterian.”
Sister Maria has been followed by cardiologist David A. Rubin, M.D., forwhom she has the highest regard. “He is
truly a beautiful person and a wonderfulphysician who encompasses the healing art,as well as the science and medicine.”
On April 20, 2005, Sister Maria had hersecond heart surgery. “On my second post-operative day, I thanked Dr. Smith, and hereplied, ‘Don’t thank me…you’re doing allthe work!’” she recalls. “That statement allof a sudden put me in charge as well.Psychologically it made me realize, ‘Comeon, keep working and get better, Maria.’”
During her 16-day hospitalization, SisterMaria took particular notice of the nurseswho were constantly at her side. “I so muchappreciated their empathy, and recognizingmy need as a nurse to know more in depthabout my care plan and treatment,” saysSister Maria. “They not only considered thatneed in me, their patient, but also reachedout very caringly to my family, sisters in mycommunity, and friends who were with me.Needless to say I was very grateful to andproud of these nurses.
“I think every illness, every surgery canbe a transforming experience in one’s life,”she adds. “You’re forced to face the fear ofthe unknown, and then when you experienceGod’s healing and you are well, life becomesan even greater gift.” >

Ilene Katz“As a child, I was always depressed to somedegree, though at the time it was interpretedthat I was just ‘quiet,’” recalls Ilene Katz.“Looking back, I think I always suffered fromdepression.”
Today, with the support of her longtimepsychotherapist, Judith E. Williams, L.C.S.W.,and Darlene M. Mitera, M.D., a psychiatrist atNewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell, Ms. Katzdescribes herself as a different person and is ableto move on with her life.
Ms. Katz had been treated successfully fordepression with medication and therapy for anumber of years. But a year ago, taking prednisone for rheumatoid arthritis served totrigger a deep depression, one from which shecould not emerge. “Medications were notworking any more,” she says. “I was pretty much at wit’s end.”
“What impressed me about Ilene was thatshe had been functional for so long,” says Dr.Mitera. “But then she was unable to care notjust for herself, but for her future. She couldn’tgo forward.”
Dr. Mitera and Ms.Williams recommendedthat she receive electroconvulsive therapy (ECT),
very precise and directed electrical currents that stimulate the brain and help to improve its neurochemistry, functioning similar to anti-depressants, but more quick acting.
“Initially, I thought there was a stigma tohaving ECT,” notes Ms. Katz. “But then as Istarted feeling better and getting back tomyself, I’m really grateful that it was availableto me.”
“Ilene has a lot of strength and courage,”says Ms. Williams. “To see someone face something that difficult and debilitating, andnot give up, is very inspiring.”
“As a nurse, I tend to be a giving person,so being on the other side—to now be thevulnerable person dependent on others wasdifficult,” says Ms. Katz. “I was asking for help,and it was nice to know that when I asked, Igot it. Dr. Mitera and Ms. Williams came tosee me every day. That sense of being takencare of provided me with great comfort and apositive feeling that I was going to get somekind of relief.
“Some days are still a struggle, and somedays are very easy,” continues Ms. Katz. “I justwant to be comfortable with myself. My goalis to take one day at a time and try to makethe most of every day.” >

Joh n Nolasc oIn 2002, just short of his 16th birthday,John Nolasco was injured in a footballaccident that left him paralyzed in bothhis arms and legs. In time, he developeda paralytic curvature of the spine mak-ing it very painful for him to sit in hiswheelchair for any length of time.
“I had to stop my strengtheningexercises or working on my computerbecause my shoulders were hurtingtoo much,” he says.
John researched the Internet for helpand found Christopher B. Michelsen,M.D., Chief of Orthopaedics at The Allen Pavilion of NewYork-Presbyterian and Chief of theOrthopaedic Spine Service atNewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia.“We performed a spinal fusion withrods and screws to stabilize John’sspine and allow him to situpright,” says Dr. Michelsen.“This enabled him to get back
to the activities he is capable of doingand to improve his quality of life.”
Following surgery, John began aprogram of physical therapy developedby Erica (Ricki) Weisselberg, P.T.“We worked with John and his momand family who needed to learn somenew things, like how to help himtransfer from his chair to his bed,” saysMs. Weisselberg. “John was really great,and did everything that was asked ofhim. He gave me so much insight intopatients who have sustained a spinalcord injury. It was my pleasure andhonor to work with him.”
A college student, John, now 20,drives a van equipped with hand con-trols, enjoys sporting events and con-certs, and working on his computer.He also plans to attend law school.“Without the spinal fusion, Johnwouldn’t be able to proceed like hewants to,” adds Dr. Michelsen. “But healso had to have the will and desire toeven want to go through with it. John’sattitude, his fortitude and his willing-ness to push himself…he’s the star.” >
Dear Dr. Michelsen,
When my mother and I left after our
initial visit with you, we both felt great
confidence in you and what you might
accomplish with the surgery. We were
right! Your staff in the ICU was extremely
knowledgeable.
Physical therapy was also a great
pleasure. Both my mom and I really
loved Kevin and Ricki so much.
The surgical expertise of Dr. Christopher Michelsen and rehabilitationskills of physical therapist Erica Weisselberg are a perfect complement forpatients needing care for orthopaedic injuries.

Last year, the Hospital became the largest transplant programin the United States based on heart, lung, kidney, pancreas,and liver transplants. The heart program and kidney programare first in the nation in terms of number of transplantsperformed. In February 2007, our transplant program wasdesignated one of 12 high-performing centers nationally by a Department of Health and Human Services BestPractices Study. The lung transplant program at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia received a citation from theScientific Registry of Transplant Recipients for survivaloutcomes that exceed expected rates. Our kidney transplantprogram at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell—whichhas performed more than 3,000 transplants to date withits affiliate, The Rogosin Institute—also ranks in the top5 percent with respect to one-year outcomes.
In February 2007, a report released by the New York StateDepartment of Health showed that Morgan Stanley
Children’s Hospital is a leader in the State for best out-comes for surgeries performed on children with congenitalheart defects. In June 2007, a report published by theDepartment of Health and Human Services on nationalhospital mortality data for heart attack and heart failureshowed NewYork-Presbyterian rates were lower than thenational averages for both conditions.
FIRST AND FOREMOST
NewYork-Presbyterian physicians, who have facultyappointments at either Weill Cornell Medical College orColumbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons,continue to make history with groundbreaking proceduresfor a range of diverse and challenging diseases and disorders.These include:
• liver transplantation for bile duct cancer patients
• a stem cell clinical trial for severe coronary artery disease
• a multi-organ transplant in a single procedure on an eight-month-old boy
• demonstration of the ability of antibodies to directly target the blood supply of a variety of malignant tumors
• publication of a landmark study with Weill Cornell MedicalCollege that reveals lung cancer 10-year survival greatlyimproves with annual CT screening
• discovery of a new antibody that may help in the body’sdefense against Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerativediseases
An Amazing Campaign
This past Spring, the Hospital launched a new
marketing campaign—Amazing Things Are Happening
Here—to further increase our visibility and reputation
nationwide. High-impact, full-color advertisements
—with photos by Pulitzer Prize-winning photo-
journalist and former White House photographer
David Hume Kennerly—appeared in The Wall Street
Journal and Continental Airlines Magazine. The ads
highlighted examples of extraordinary patient stories
—from the recovery of a severely injured firefighter
to restoring the sight of a young girl suffering from
diabetes—each emphasizing the quality care provided at NewYork-Presbyterian. Locally, the campaign also included
radio spots featuring cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Mehmet Oz. The response has been positively amazing.
28
• pioneering a revolutionary procedure called NOTES(Natural Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery), a minimallyinvasive technique utilizing natural body openings for accessto internal sites, dramatically reducing the number ofopen abdominal surgeries
The Hospital was also the first to:
• perform catheter-based pulmonary valve replacement inNew York City
• conduct a Phase 1 clinical trial using gene therapy to battleParkinson’s disease
• offer a combined laparoscopy and colonoscopy procedurefor difficult-to-remove polyps in the large intestine
• implant a novel stroke-prevention device for heartpatients with atrial fibrillation
And, for the first time in history, a team of physician-scientistsat NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell used deep brainstimulation to “awaken” a minimally conscious, severelybrain-injured 38-year-old man who had been unable tocommunicate or eat by mouth for six years. He now performs both tasks daily.
FINANCIAL REPORT
In 2006, NewYork-Presbyterian realized a $90.8 milliongain from operations. In addition, the Hospital had favorableinvestment earnings and an extremely strong fundraisingyear. To Realize Medicine’s Promise, the $1 billion Campaignfor NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, has been a tremendoussuccess—reaching its goal nearly three years ahead ofschedule. In 2006, fundraising totaled $212 million.The Hospital’s program in grants, business, technologydevelopment, and policy development completed 2006ahead of its budgeted target with $20.4 million in revenue.
To help lead our financial program, we recruited Gloria D. Reeg, an experienced investment adviser, to the new position of Chief Investment Officer. In addition, PhyllisLantos, Chief Financial Officer, was promoted to ExecutiveVice President, Finance and Treasurer.
We continue to rigorously monitor the proposed actions of city, state and federal legislative and executive bodies.This year, the hospital industry was successful inmoderating the Governor’s budget proposal, whichwould have cut substantial funds from hospitals, and federalefforts to institute severe cuts in Medicare and Medicaid.
ENHANCING THE ENVIRONMENT
In 2006, we moved forward with a number of excitingmajor building projects, including the Milstein Family Heart Center at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia, and the rooftop addition to the Greenberg Pavilion and theAdvanced Therapeutics Services Center at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell.
In addition, NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia saw a complete renovation and expansion of the dialysis unit andconstruction of a new nephrology clinic to accommodatethe growing volume of dialysis outpatients; installation of anew 16-slice CT scanner; and the equipping of two operating rooms with state-of-the-art video informationdisplays—Walls of Knowledge. Morgan Stanley Children’sHospital celebrated the opening of the Laura RothenbergBronchoscopy/Endoscopy Suite and the Lion’s Den, a new high-tech game room for our adolescent patients.
At NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell, a 10,000-square-foot state-of-the-art MRI suite was completed; Walls ofKnowledge were constructed in two Greenberg Pavilionoperating rooms; and a new interventional neuroradiologyfacility opened.
We also instituted a major bed replacement effort through-out the Hospital—replacing 80 percent of inpatient medical-surgical beds, upgrading all 242 critical care beds,and replacing mattresses and upgrading side rails for theremaining medical-surgical beds.
NURSING INITIATIVES
At the foundation of the Department of Nursing’s missionis an ongoing emphasis on enhancing quality and patientsafety, improving outcomes, and maintaining clinical andperformance excellence. In 2006, the Department continuedto play a key role in the Hospital-wide We Put Patients Firstcampaign, implementing relationship-based, and patientand family-centered care initiatives at each of the Hospital’sfive sites.The Department also continued to further thedevelopment of nursing leaders through a partnership withthe Nursing Leadership Academy and creation of a Masterof Science degree program for nursing leadership in collaboration with New York University Wagner GraduateSchool of Public Service.
In 2006, the Department secured a major grant from theJonas Center for Nursing Excellence to implement theNewYork-Presbyterian Nursing Residency Program and
29
established a collaborative post-baccalaureate Nurse ResidencyProgram to assist new graduates as they transition to theirprofessional role. The Division of Nursing Education continues to offer a robust program of training to ensureongoing clinical competency for the over 1,400 registerednurses throughout all five sites and across the continuum ofcare at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.
The Department of Nursing is proud of its overall vacancyand turnover rates, both of which are below the nationalaverage. The success of the Department’s recruitment strategies is evident in the addition of 802 new hires in2006, which was a 16 percent increase. The Department ofNursing continues to develop strategies to maintain ourturnover and vacancy rates below national and regionalhealth-care specific benchmarks.
FOCUS ON QUALITY AND PATIENT SAFETY
Under the astute leadership of trustee Arthur Hedge, theBoard Committee on Quality has been monitoring the per-formance of the Hospital’s clinical and support departments on a variety of measures specified by the JointCommission and by the medical and surgical specialty societies. The Committee now also reviews the Hospital’sperformance on a growing number of quality measures that will be reported to and published by state and federalagencies and by accreditation and quality-monitoringorganizations.
We are pleased to announce that Dr. Eliot J. Lazar has been appointed Vice President and Chief Quality Officer of NewYork-Presbyterian, responsible for overseeing theHospital’s quality, performance improvement, and patientsafety functions. Dr. Lazar, who joined NewYork-Presbyterian Healthcare System in 2000 as Vice Presidentfor Medical Affairs and will continue in that position, willplay a leadership role in Joint Commission and regulatorycompliance activities.
STATE OF THE SYSTEM
In February 2007, Wayne Osten was named Senior VicePresident and Director of the NewYork-PresbyterianHealthcare System. Mr. Osten and his administrative teamhave made great progress on a number of fronts, includinghelping member institutions to better prepare for externalregulatory scrutiny and address reimbursement challenges.
Last year, the System implemented a number of quality initiatives. The System’s annual quality symposium is nowone of the largest in the Northeast. In 2007, the Systemrolled out COQPIT (Comprehensive OrganizationalQuality Performance Information Tool), an innovative program that will give all hospitals in the System onlineaccess to data to benchmark their performance, identifyopportunities for improvement, and to review their data ona case-specific basis. The System is also collaborating withour colleagues at the Methodist Hospital System inHouston and Weill Cornell Medical College to establish apermanent quality institute.
STRIVING FOR EXCELLENCE
We are pleased to report that NewYork-PresbyterianHospital continues to excel in national and local rankings of best hospitals. According to the 2007 U.S.News & WorldReport “America’s Best Hospitals” survey, NewYork-Presbyterian ranks first in New York City and sixth in thenation. It is the seventh consecutive year that NewYork-Presbyterian is the only New York metropolitan-area hospital on the magazine’s “Honor Roll,” which lists thetop 18 hospitals nationally based on reputation, mortalityrates, and other patient-care-related factors. NewYork-Presbyterian is the only New York metropolitan-area hospital—and one of only four Honor Roll hospitals—torank in all 16 medical specialties included in the survey.
In August 2007, for the first time, U.S.News & World Reportpublished an “America’s Best Children’s Hospitals” issue,which features a detailed listing of the nation’s top 30 chil-dren’s hospitals. NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital ranks firstin New York and eighth in the nation for pediatric care,according to the published survey. The ranking accounts forNewYork-Presbyterian’s two major centers for children’shealth care: Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital and theKomansky Center for Children’s Health at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell. Based on pediatric rankingsreported in previous “Best Hospitals” issues, this year’s pedi-atric ranking represents the seventh year the Hospital isranked in the top 10.
Such recognition can only be achieved and maintainedthrough the ongoing commitment of our nearly 16,000dedicated and hard-working employees, as well as theinvolvement of our many volunteers, friends, and donorswho believe in the Hospital and our mission to provide the very best care medicine has to offer.

LEAVE A LEGACY BY MAKING A GIFT
Gifts, bequests, and trusts are important sources of support for NewYork-Presbyterian
Hospital. Such gifts allow you to leave a legacy and help fund a wide range of programs,
including those that provide patient care, educate future physicians and scientists, expand
community outreach, and make possible pioneering clinical research that results in new
and improved treatments for disease. Providing support for these programs in your estate
plan makes a moving statement about your care and concern for the health and well-being
of future generations.
Gifts can be made in cash, securities, or other property and can take many forms: an
outright gift, pledge, bequest, or various life income arrangements (trusts, pooled income
funds, or gift annuities). Support can be designated for specific purposes or can be
unrestricted, which gives NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital the greatest flexibility in planning
and administering programs in patient care, education, and research. Gifts to NewYork-
Presbyterian Hospital may be directed to either NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia
or NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell, or both. There are many options for
naming opportunities and public recognition of gifts at the Hospital.
NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital is a qualified not-for-profit institution which receives major
support from private philanthropy. Gifts to the Hospital by individuals, foundations, and
corporations are exempt from income, gift, and estate taxes to the extent of and in the
manner provided by federal and state laws. If you are considering making a bequest, you
may wish to share the following language with your advisors:
“I give, devise and bequeath to NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, a corporation created under
the New York State Not-for-Profit Corporation Law and located in New York City, New
York, the sum of $____________ (or description of the property) to be used for the
general corporate purposes of NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital as its Board of Trustees shall
determine.”
The Office of Development welcomes the opportunity to tell you more about the Hospital’s
numerous programs and activities, and to consult with you and your advisors about vari-
ous gift ideas. For further information, please contact:
