Our Staff
The Medical Staff
The physician who admits you is responsible for directing your care while you are in the hospital. Your physician, as the coordinator for your treatment program, should be consulted if you have questions about your illness. Additionally, you may be visited during your stay by an Internal Medicine Doctor and/or a Nurse Practitioner as well as a visit by a Pain Management Professional.

If desired, clergy from any denomination or religious affiliation will be contacted to meet your needs. Notify your caregiver for all pastoral service requests or call 3597 from any house phone. Your personal priest, minister, rabbi, or other clergy is always welcome to visit you while you are here. The hospital also offers part-time clergy options in-house. Please call 3597 from any house phone for a scheduled visit.
