I am eagerly anticipating working with Huntington Hospital to raise awareness and the necessary funding for future improvements in the years ahead.” “Huntington Hospital is grateful to have the support of both Ted and Craig Weiss to help raise awareness and funding for the hospital’s capital improvement program and in particular, the emergency department,” said Gerard X. Brogan Jr., MD, Huntington Hospital’s executive director. T.
