RE: Thank you for your excellent service.

Dr. Corbin,

My wife, Maripat, went for a double-knee replacement at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital on June 9th. Her surgeon was Dr. Jeffrey Geller. Dr. Geller’s RN is Melissa Lolito.

I have researched Columbia Presbyterian’s standing in New York City and the nation as a whole. I must say that your ranking as “The Best” hospital in New York is certainly on the mark. My wife was treated with the utmost professionalism by all the staff at the hospital. Dr. Jeffrey Geller is a consummate professional, and an excellent surgeon with a great compassion for his patients. Nurse Melissa Lolito is magnificent, detailed and professional in her work. “Extreme Professionalism” is the word that exemplifies their efforts at the hospital.

After leaving surgery, Maripat was placed on the 7 Garden North Wing. Once again, all of the staff on that unit were extremely attentive, kind to my wife, and professional in every manner.

Doctor Corbin, from the moment we walked into the hospital, we sensed the professionalism and extreme dedication within the building. We noticed it from the doctors in attendance, nursing staff, security personnel and personnel who were assigned to maintain and clean the facility.

Two years ago, I had my first encounter with Columbia Presbyterian’s professionalism when I first visited Director of Podiatry Dr. Zvi Bar David for foot problems. His professionalism persuaded me to ask my wife to consider your hospital for her knee replacements. Actually, Dr. Bar David recommended Dr. Geller for the procedure.

The sign emblazoned above Ft. Washington Avenue says it all, “Amazing Things Are Happening Here.”

I want to thank you, Dr. Robert Kelly, Dr. Jeffrey Geller, Nurse Melissa Lolito, the staff on 7 Garden North, Dr. Bar David and everyone at your wonderful hospital for your excellent service.

Regards,

Paul M.
