The medical staff of Saratoga Hospital
recently presented its Community Service
Award to Dr. Desmond DelGiacco in recognition
of his extraordinary contributions to
patients, the hospital, the medical staff and
the community.
DelGiacco, a pulmonologist, has been a
member of the Saratoga Hospital medical
staff since 1981. He is among the hospital’s
most respected physicians and is beloved
and admired by patients, staff and colleagues,
hospital officials said.
“His brilliance and integrity are wellbalanced by a great sense of humor,” said Dr. Joseph Bell, “but most important is his unwavering belief that it is a privilege to care for patients.”
Bell, who is president of the Saratoga Hospital medical staff, presented the award at a recent medical staff meeting. He praised DelGiacco for his compassion, his exceptional clinical expertise and his willingness to share that expertise as a teacher and mentor.
