CMF Pediatric Center Provides Comfort

Herbert Roy Zucker, a resident of Glen Cove, New York, has a career spanning 46 years and two professions: real estate and financial services. Outside of his work Herbert Roy Zucker has supported a number of organizations, including the Children’s Medical Fund (CMF) of New York.

The CMF's Pediatric Diagnostic Center makes the MRI procedure more comfortable for children and convenient for parents. The center was designed for children who need MRIs, which for many can be intimidating. The center is projected to treat more than 4,500 children annually. The MRI center is outfitted with two state-of-the-art machines and a room for minor procedures.

To make the experience comfortable, the center was built to take away some of the scariness for children. While at the center, children can choose the color of the MRI walls, and they can watch videos projected onto the walls of the MRI machine. They are also provided pediatric MRI goggles to watch the film during the procedure. Providing children this distraction makes it easier for physicians to get good pictures of brain activity, the heart, the skeletal system, and other organs.

For the healthcare community, the Pediatric Diagnostic Center supports other programs such as neurology, orthopedics, cardiology, oncology, and neurosurgery. Moreover, children can be seen at the hospital as opposed to having to travel to the Long Island Jewish Medical Center, which is also more convenient for parents.
