TBHC’s Leaders Gary G. Terrinoni and Dr. James Gasperino Recognized for Their Contributions

Many of the staff at The Brooklyn Hospital Center (TBHC) have had a positive impact on their communities and ALL of the staff served heroically during the recent Covid-19 crisis this spring. Two TBHC leaders recently were specifically lauded.

On August 10, Crain’s New York honored “Notable New Yorkers in Health Care,” and included TBHC’s President and CEO, Gary G. Terrinoni, and TBHC’s Chair of Medicine, James Gasperino, MD.

The special section said of Mr. Terrinoni that the hospital “captured national attention for the valiant fight it mounted under Gary Terrinoni, who has led the hospital since 2015. Terrinoni has worked to build a culture of inclusion, which served the hospital well during its darkest hour.”

Of Dr. Gasperino: “In 2017 Gasperino transformed critical care medicine at the hospital by hiring new faculty, redesigning critical operations and adding a fellowship program in critical care.”

TBHC is proud that our staff at all levels continues to contribute to Keeping Brooklyn Healthy, and now, more than ever, as we continue to face the pandemic’s challenges.
