We also can provide leading-edge care for just about every diagnosis—from a simple fracture to a kidney transplant.

Congratulations to Stony Brook University Hospital's Volunteer of the Year, Timothy Lavopa! 🎉

Timothy began volunteering with our Child Life Department in 2025, dedicating over 150 hours to supporting pediatric patients and their families. A former patient in our hematology/oncology unit, Timothy’s journey with Stony Brook Medicine has come full circle. After bravely and successfully completing cancer treatment, he joined the Stony Brook Children’s Hospital Youth Advisory Council to help enhance the patient experience through meaningful, patient-centered initiatives.

Inspired by his own experience, Timothy is now pursuing a career focused on improving the lives of pediatric patients and has been accepted into a Master’s in Child Life program. Congratulations, Timothy! And thank you for all that you do! ❤️

Leaders in healthcare, public safety and government came together at Stony Brook University last month to address the growing dangers of e-bikes and e-scooters on Long Island.

Experts from Stony Brook Children’s Hospital, law enforcement and advocacy groups highlighted a sharp rise in injuries - specially among children - and emphasized that these incidents are preventable through education, safer infrastructure and stronger enforcement.

With micromobility use surging since legalization in 2020, the message was clear: awareness, responsibility and community action are critical to keeping riders safe. https://bit.ly/3Op5O8v
