ELIH Foundation

The Eastern Long Island Hospital Foundation (ELIHF) is the fundraising and communications arm of Stony Brook Eastern Long Island Hospital (SBELIH). All of the Foundation's philanthropic efforts are independent of Stony Brook Medicine (SBM), and all funds raised by the Foundation remain local to benefit SBELIH in Greenport. SBELIH is one campus of the SBM system. All hospitals fundraise to enhance services, attract physicians and healthcare professionals, and to build infrastructure for current and future healthcare needs. The Foundation promotes participation in developing and maintaining a positive relationship between our community, healthcare providers and the hospital.

FUNDRAISING Events

Fundraising events are a great way to give and connect with the Stony Brook Eastern Long Island hospital community while helping us to ensure that every patient receives the best care possible. These important events not only provide fun and camaraderie for our community and family members but also provide much-needed funds for the hospital.

Testimonials

Your donations go a long way to help keep our hospital strong. Here are a few words about what our hospital and foundation means to your community.

Diagnostic testing services at Stony Brook Eastern Long Island Hospital are quick. Waiting for results is always the hardest part of these types of tests for any patient. I appreciate that I never have to wait for results.

Jack Volinski

My care from Dr. Roe couldn’t have been better. Dr. Roe did an amazing job with my shoulder surgery. From the start, Dr. Roe made me feel confident in his ability to help rectify my shoulder injury.

Nicole Buckner

I have had shoulder pain for several years and could not ignore it any longer. For prior surgeries, I had gone to doctors in the city as I was not happy with the orthopedists we had out here until Dr. Roe came along. My shoulder is better and I am now exercising again and bicycling again in no pain. Care options on the North Fork have improved greatly, and I’m thankful to SBELIH for providing these services!

Terri Boyle Romanelli

The Physical Therapy team helped me every step of the way. I always felt like I was being taken care of and in good hands, and I’m very grateful to everyone – the doctors and physical therapists – for their incredible work getting me back on my feet.

Glen Grathwohl

Our family has visited the Emergency Department over the years and we’re always in and out quickly. The services are excellent. We appreciated being able to get such a high level of care so close to home.

Scott & Jessie Bennett

I first went to Southold Family Medicine to get testing done for a time-sensitive matter. The care and attention that I received from Dr. Pachter and his staff was top-notch. They were caring, compassionate, and sensitive to my case. He helped my family quickly find answers during a very tough time. I now visit the office for my primary care needs.

John Ingrilli

When I first saw Dr. Stanton, I was having debilitating back pain. I couldn’t surf, exercise, or even drive. I was absolutely miserable. Dr. Stanton was able to quickly diagnose and treat the root cause of my back problem. Dr. Stanton is a great clinician with an excellent bedside manner. He understands the importance of an active lifestyle, and he got me back on my feet doing what I love to do.

Mike Asselin

It is really hard to put into words what Stony Brook Eastern Long Island Hospital means to me and our family. When COVID 19 hit the North Fork, they were at ground zero and to put it plainly, the talent in this hospital saved my life. As a member of this community, I am incredibly proud that we have a hospital of this caliber on the North Fork.
