"I'd like to thank your wonderful team of nurses for their devoted and caring services. Each and every nurse came with a smile and made the whole experience so much easier for my husband and me. I'd like to especially mention nurse Jennifer Kroll who had a special way of reassuring the patient and me as well. I was under high stress and she made the whole medical experience so much easier." ...Marguerite Carlock, Cortlandt Manor

"I cannot say enough for the help that Ellen Caldas, RN; Ellen McPartlan, Physical Therapist; Carol Griffiths, Clinical Nurse and Arlinda Derrick, Home Health Aide gave to me.

"I want to inform you how happy we are at the White Plains Hospital Wound Care Center with the care that (VNSW nurse) Velma (Nicholson) provides for our patients. As you know we utilize your services all the time and numerous patients who were/are cared for us by Velma have called to tell us how great she is with them and how exceptional her care is. I applaud her dedication to patient care." ...Guirlen Cange, RN, Adult Nurse Practitioner
"Jennifer Kroll was my husband's primary nurse. Her no-nonsense professionalism and efficiency saved Steve's life on more than one occasion, and just as important was her loving care that gave him hope and quality of life despite the difficulties of his condition."...Judith Lavenberg, Mt. Kisco
"My experience working with physical therapist Judy Teague was outstanding. Not only did I feel confident working with her regarding the exercises, but she also advocated for me by running interference with my surgeon's office. I am completely back to my normal routine, and this is in no small part to Judy's work with me." ...John Twohig, Beacon
"This is a note of appreciation for all the care received by my husband, John, especially from Mary Kilgallen and her team who came many times a week and cared for him professionally and lovingly. The service was awesome! I would also like to mention Jo Ann Lutzky who not only got him up and moving, but was so helpful in providing the equipment needed to keep him comfortable and safe." ...Marilyn Bottjer, Eastchester
"It was my very good fortune to have Sonia Gonzales as my visiting nurse for three difficult months of my life. Her professionalism, kindness and expertise vastly contributed to my recovery." ...Catherine Neville, Tuckahoe
