  • "NYCB is a beautiful haven designed with brightness and comfort. The entire staff is gracious , sensitive and incredibly efficient. Dr Murphy is perfect in every way. He is on top of every medical situation, is always available, explains things and treats me as a person, not just a sickness. . He an actually listens and takes time with me. I struggle with the build up of the new East End but if it hadn’t grown so much we wouldn’t have this miracle of NYCB. Thanks to it residents out east do not have to travel to NYC and that is a gift when you’re sick"
