Whether it was a small chat, checking on my well-being, or administering medication, the care provided was nothing short of exceptional.
I was recently admitted into your hospital for a possible cardiac-related event. I was placed on 4F and was truly lucky enough to be assigned the following nurses: Vanetta and Mike. In addition, Vanetta was training Jessica, during the day. I was truly astounded by all three, who were extremely attentive and exhibited the utmost professionalism at all times. I would be remiss to not mention Bruce as well who was their Tech. As a first responder with almost 30 years of experience, it truly amazed me the energy and devotion that these individuals share with their patients. Whether it was a small chat, checking on my well-being, or administering medication, the care provided was nothing short of exceptional. Thank you so much!
I was well taken care of at White Plains Hospital and had complete confidence from the day I arrived until the day I left after my last procedure.
Having undergone the first leadless pacemaker implementation to occur at White Plains Hospital, I can affirm its ease, Dr. Wang popped it in and that was it…Going forward, I felt fine!
One day last spring, after fainting suddenly my doctors found that I had a very slow heart rate, a condition called bradycardia that often accompanies AFib. To regulate my heartbeat, I needed a pacemaker— Dr. Wang felt that I was a strong candidate for a new type of pacemaker called the Micra transcatheter pacing system. Having undergone the first leadless pacemaker implementation to occur at White Plains Hospital, I can affirm its ease, Dr. Wang popped it in and that was it…Going forward, I felt fine!
When I was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 50, I knew I needed to find a surgeon who not only had outstanding clinical skill, but a caring and compassionate bedside manner. I found that in Dr. Preya Ananthakrishnan, Director of Breast Surgery at White Plains Hospital. When I met with her, I got this feeling that came over me—this warm, peaceful, good feeling about this doctor. I walked out of there educated. I knew my decision without being scared out of my mind. I knew I was in the best of hands.

As I lost the weight, I gained energy, health and a positive attitude. This was not an easy decision, but one I wish I would have done long ago. The support of my family, friends and the staff at White Plains Hospital is what I attribute to my success. Losing 110lbs has made life more enjoyable and ultimately has helped me to physically and mentally tackle my MS issues.
