Every year, healthcare professionals across New York City celebrate their PAGNYversaries—milestones highlighting their enduring commitment to compassionate, mission-driven care. These anniversaries are more than just markers of time; they reflect years of dedication, growth, and an unwavering belief in the power of healing.

This April, we proudly recognize the exceptional professionals at our NYC Health + Hospitals partner facilities who are celebrating their 5th and 10th PAGNYversaries. Your steadfast service and contributions to our communities are deeply valued. Thank you for embodying the spirit of PAGNY and continuing to make a meaningful daily impact.
