As of December 15, 1999, internists Paul Mangiafico, M.D., Matthew Mannini, D.O., and Arbie Baccay, M.D. have joined forces with Mount Kisco Medical Group. Their practice, located at Southeast Executive Park, 185 Route 312 in Carmel, is now an MKMG satellite office.

“We are extremely pleased to have formed an alliance with these excellent physicians in Putnam County,” said Dr. Scott Hayworth, president and chief executive officer of MKMG.

“The addition of an office in Carmel represents an important step in the Group’s plans to increase its services to Putnam county residents.”

“We are proud to be a part of such a comprehensive group,” said Dr. Mannini.

“And we look forward to continuing to provide our patients with the highest quality care, utilizing the vast variety of services MKMG has to offer.”

“We look forward to expanding the breadth of our services, while maintaining a foundation of caring compassion for each of our patients,” Dr. Mangiafico said.

“Our joining MKMG brings tremendous opportunities to our patients, such as increased access to highly qualified consultants.” added Dr. Baccay.

Another Choice for Hospital Care

This merger means that all MKMG internal medicine patients, including existing patients of Drs. Mangiafico, Mannini and Baccay, may now choose whether they want to be admitted to Northern Westchester Hospital Center or Putnam Hospital Center.

“In the world of health care today, choices are often taken out of our hands,” Dr. Hayworth said. “This is a significant new option, because it gives patients complete flexibility. The patient is the winner with these new alternatives.”

Dr. Warren Bromberg, MKMG Urologist, also has privileges at both Putnam Hospital and Northern Westchester Hospital. Additional MKMG physicians are also applying for privileges at Putnam Hospital.

Increased Options for Putnam County Residents

MKMG patients in the Brewster/Carmel area can now choose from two locations for their primary care. The Carmel office offers internal medicine, and, in the near future, endocrinology. MKMG’s Brewster office is located at Route 22 and Milltown Road, and offers internal medicine, endocrinology, pediatrics, obstetrics/ gynecology, and urology.
