Parker's pioneering Indian Cultural Unit is the first of its kind in the region.

More than 150 guests, including honorees and dignitaries, attended Parker Jewish Institute’s Indian Cultural Wing Plaque Dedication on Thursday, September 12, 2024, at Parker’s auditorium. The dedication was held in honor of Saroj Shah, M.D., and I.C. Shah, M.D., longtime supporters of Parker and co-founders of Parker’s Indian Cultural Unit.
Parker’s pioneering Indian Cultural Unit is the first of its kind in the region. The Indian Cultural Unit accommodates the rehabilitation, medical care and cultural needs of older adults, in New York’s growing Indian population, helping them achieve the best level of health possible.
“We are so tremendously grateful to Dr. Saroj Shah and Dr. I.C. Shah, co-founders of Parker’s Indian Cultural Unit. Their support and vision enhances Parker’s long-established mission to provide, with compassion and dedication, superior quality health care and rehabilitation,” said Michael N. Rosenblut, Parker Jewish Institute’s President and CEO.
