I brought my husband to the ER suspecting that he was having a heart attack. Within 10 minutes he was in an emergency bay with 3 doctors and 6 nurses working over him, inserting a line in his arm, and preparing to wheel him up to the Cardiac Cath Center, where Methodist's Director of Cardiology inserted 3 stents in my husband's coronary arteries, stopping his massive heart attack cold. In the ensuing week my husband had 2 more stents inserted to ensure that his arteries would remain clear and flowing freely. The staff was polite and caring, tremendously informative and gave us the confidence that all would be well. The Director of Cardiology -- one of the busiest men in the world! -- came to see my husband at least once per day. I was allowed to spend 2 nights in my husband's room to ease his initial anxiety, and slept on a comfortable daybed. That was in 2007. My husband, 8 years later, is so fine that he's biking around Prospect Park.

Similarly, I had a stent inserted in 2014. I was in and out in one day, the care was super, and I slept like a baby all night through. The medical care -- and the human caring -- that we have both received at Methodist is second to none, and I'm thrilled to have one of Brooklyn's 3 top Cardiology Centers in my own neighborhood!!
