Celebrating Family Health Center of Harlem’s First Anniversary

On November 20, 2013, staff, site, and organizational leaders gathered to celebrate the Family Health Center of Harlem’s first anniversary. The 37,000 square foot health center began serving residents from Harlem and throughout New York City in December of 2012. In his opening remarks, Dr. Neil Calman, the Institute’s co-founder, president and CEO referenced the “beyond-anticipated numbers of patients who have already received care” at the site, and thanked the extraordinary team of providers and staff who have “made the past year a terrific success.”

The program, which also included words of thanks from Dr. Robert Schiller, senior vice president medical affairs, and Institute Board Chair, Ollie Brown-Carrington, culminated in the presentation of staff-voted awards.
