Greetings, and welcome to MD News Central New York. Thank you very much for reading the January/February edition of MD News. Once again, we examine the world- class health care available right here in Central New York. In our cover story, we take a look at the Nephrology Associates of Syracuse. Over the past 44 years, Nephrology Associates of Syracuse, P.C. has continued to grow and enhance the kidney care they provide, making them a top choice for advanced, compassionate care. Founded in 1978, Nephrology Associates of Syracuse began with a small team that held an important but simple goal: to provide high-quality nephrological care for their patients. However, achieving that goal requires nephrologists and other specialists to work closely together. When they do, remarkable things can happen. In our first feature, we highlight Drakos Clinical Laboratories. The healthcare industry needs new, flexible solutions to ensure everyone has the access to care they need. In Central New York, Drakos strives to serve patients wherever they are. Drakos provides mobile, at-work and at-home medical testing, concierge medical services, and medical testing logistics for large-scale events and productions. The company is now pursuing new partnership opportunities to help better reach patients. We also take a look at the work of Gina Cuyler, MD. Maternal health is the continuum of care that includes the time before pregnancy, pregnancy itself and one year postpartum. The health conditions of mothers before pregnancy impact maternal and child health outcomes and, under Dr. Cuyler's leadership, Excellus BCBS is working to address negative outcomes. MD News also covers the return of Randall Green, MD, to the cardiac program at St. Joseph's Health. In late November, St. Joseph's Health in Syracuse reconstituted its cardiac surgery team by welcoming the return of Dr. Green. Dr. Green left St. Joseph's five years ago with hopes of building a cardiac surgery and surgery training program at SUNY Upstate Medical University, and has now returned to a team and a place he loves. Once again, I would like to thank all those who come together to create our magazine. Here at MD News, we are dedicated to delivering an engaging reader experience, one with real local relevance. In each issue, we highlight distinguished and accomplished physicians and practice groups.
