Dr. Noah Zinkin is one of the best gastroenterologists in Huntington Hospital. He is my family's gastroenterologist since I start working in Huntington Hospital. He is normally based at the second floor in endoscopy /colonoscopy department in Huntington. He also has his own private office in 775 Park Avenue Huntington in which my family go for his colonoscopy procedure. Dr. Noah Zinkin was kind, caring, compassionate and amazing individual. He is very considerate physician who cares for my family for all this year. Last May, a family member was admitted at Huntington Hospital due to abdominal pain of their gallbladder. They found out later after the CT scan test. They also had an abscess on their colon plus the aspiration pneumonia. I start to worry about everything as a loved one and a caregiver and questioned myself. How it happened? Why do they have these complications? The next day, I went to visit the family member at the hospital. I happened to meet the phlebotomist and a coworker that I have in Huntington Hospital. She also works as an assistant at Dr. Noah Zinkin's private office. I asked her if she could tell and pass the message for me to Dr. Noah Zinkin about my family member that they are being admitted in 5 south. My family told me that Dr. Noah Zinkin came by to see and checked on my family that day. My family member had a lot of ups and down on their health conditions for years. Dr. Noah Zinkin is a very considerable physician. He also calls family at home a couple of times. He asked my family member how he can help their pain and how they are doing. He is one of the old timer's physicians who made a lot of contributions in Huntington Hospital and the community. His untiring work and perseverance made him excellent physician for all this year.
