NEW YORK, Oct. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Health Plus Management (HPM) is excited to announce the expansion of its supported practice, South Island Orthopedics (SIO), into Far Rockaway, NY, in collaboration with St. John's Episcopal Hospital. This significant milestone marks the fourth SIO location, with its first location in Queens. The new facility, located at 347 Beach 19th Street, Far Rockaway, NY 11691, sits next door to the hospital building.
Together with St. John's Hospital, an orthopedic pathway program has been designed that unifies the experience for surgical patients throughout their entire journey. At the helm of this new orthopedic surgery and rehabilitation program is SIO's own, Dr. Paul J. Kubiak, a highly skilled surgeon with nearly 20 years of experience. This expansion brings a comprehensive range of acute and outpatient services to patients on the Rockaway peninsula.
Dr. Kubiak will also take on the role of Chief of Orthopedic Surgery at St. John's Episcopal Hospital, joining forces with Dr. Jean Simon, who will serve as Director of Therapy and Rehabilitation Services. Alongside them is a dedicated team comprising physical therapists, social workers, and case managers, all deeply committed to delivering exceptional care to patients, both pre- and post-orthopedic procedures.
St. John's stands as the sole full-service acute care hospital on the Rockaway peninsula, with a dedicated team comprising over 400 physicians, more than 1,500 employees, and a committed group of volunteers. The Hospital's mission is to build an effective coalition aimed at achieving improved community health status in a financially stable environment, with emphasis on serving the needs of patients and families, while training the physicians and healthcare providers of tomorrow.
