This Veterans Day, we’re proud to highlight a remarkable member of our BMC South family, William Reckley. A dedicated husband and father, he is also a Gulf War Veteran who served two tours—first as a Marine, then as a Navy combat medic with the Fleet Marine Force. As one of the few who has served in both branches and then returned to care for Marines as their “Navy Doc,” he describes his service as an enormous honor that shaped his life with values of accountability, responsibility, honor, and commitment.

At BMC South, William says he immediately felt welcomed. Now serving as manager of sterile processing, he is driven by the support of senior leadership, the eagerness of his team to learn, and the opportunity to elevate the department every single day.

We are grateful for his service—both to our country and to BMC South—and proud to have him as part of our community.

On February 28, 2025, Joe Abely was enjoying a golf outing with his coworkers when he collapsed on the floor. He was rushed to Boston Medical Center – South, where cardiologist Dr. Sumon Roy and his team worked together to save his life in the cardiac catheterization lab. Joe learned later that he had a heart attack and died three times on the way to the hospital. “If it wasn’t for Dr. Roy’s excellent care and persistence, I would not be here today.”

These days, Joe is slowly getting back to many of the things he enjoyed before his heart attack, like walking and bicycling with his wife, Alesia, and dirt biking with his sons. He recently got clearance from Dr. Roy to go back to work — something he wasn’t sure would be possible.

“It just speaks to what a great job Dr. Roy did. He saves people’s lives, and he is just such a humble guy. I really lucked out to have him as a doctor.”

On the day Robert Riding had a heart attack in 2021, luck was with him. “I usually worked home alone, but that day I just happened to be meeting a realtor at a house we were selling that my two sons lived in,” he says. “I got there and told my oldest son, Spencer, that I felt dizzy. A few minutes later, I collapsed.”

Fortunately, both of Robert’s sons had learned CPR in high school, and they took turns performing CPR while they waited for the ambulance to arrive. Robert was rushed to Boston Medical Center - South, where he met cardiology Dr. Joshua Arkin, who stabilized him and placed a stent to reopen his blocked artery. Then he was sent to Boston Medical Center - Brighton where he had bypass surgery with Dr. Stanley Tam, chief of Cardiac Surgery.

Robert now knows that he missed several warning signs of heart trouble. "I thought it was just because I was getting older — now I know better.”

For the past 22 years, Richard Lentini has been under the care of cardiologist Dr. Benoy Zachariah at Boston Medical Center – South. “I started seeing Dr. Zachariah after I had my first heart attack in 2003, and it was the best decision I ever made,” he says. “In 22 years, he’s not only become my favorite doctor, but he’s also a friend. He’s the reason I’m still here today.”

Every six months, Richard sees Dr. Zachariah to check on his heart. “We talk and he listens. And I mean he really listens — he pays attention to details and never hurries you. You really feel like he’s spending time with you and that he cares about you.”

“I really can’t say enough about Dr. Zachariah, says Richard. “I recommend him to anyone who needs a cardiologist.” Get the full story: https://bit.ly/4pYUMoA

Today we celebrate National Interpreters Day!

At BMS South, our dedicated team of medical interpreters plays a vital role in ensuring every patient and family member can fully participate in their care. Clear communication is essential in the medical setting, and our interpreters bridge language and cultural gaps with compassion, professionalism, and strict confidentiality.

Interpreter Services are available 24 hours a day, covering more than 200 languages and dialects, including in-person, telephonic, and video remote interpretation. From routine appointments to emergency situations, our interpreters ensure that language is never a barrier to high-quality care.

On this day, we recognize and thank our Interpreter Services team for their commitment to supporting patients with limited English proficiency and helping them feel heard, understood, and empowered in their healthcare journey.
