Mercy Hospital Unveils State-Of-The-Art Pre-Surgical Testing Suite

ROCKVILLE CENTRE, NY — Catholic Health's Mercy Hospital in Rockville Centre unveiled a new Pre-Surgical Testing suite.

The state-of-the-art 3,300 square foot space aims to boost patient experience with a modern space and improved access.

The suite had been housed in the main hospital building within a 1,400-square-foot space.

"I’m proud to say that this new space, which more than doubled in size, is full of opportunity. It will not only allow us to elevate our patient experience, but meet the surgical demands deemed necessary by our community – all while providing a new convenient and modern location," said Mercy Hospital President Joseph Manopella.

There are eight spacious exam rooms, a dedicated room designed with bariatric patients in mind, and a conveniently located X-ray room with new equipment and upgraded technology.

The Pre-Surgical Testing suite, which represents a $2.5 million investment, was supported in part by a $1 million grant from the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation and funds from the Friends of Mercy Hospital.

“The future is bright for Mercy Hospital. This project represents the culmination of two years of meticulous planning and design, while keeping our patients needs at the forefront," said Mercy Hospital Chief Operating Officer Ihab Ibrahim.
