Colleagues describe him as "David is one of the most compassionate, caring and selfless doctor I have ever encounter and work with. His love and dedication to his patients and nurses are truly unique and genuine. He is never too busy to teach the nurses, or too big of a doctor to help a nurse with the basic care of a patient. Working with David at NYU has shaped my career as evidenced by our last patient from 9/11. His dedication, knowledge and compassion enable the family to have months with him as they expressed their gratefulness year after year. David is unforgettable to every family, every patient that he cared for and every nurses that he teach. Every family trusts and relies on David's plan of care for their loved one as they know that the very best will be done for them. Every patient is equally treated and care for, with the same level of skills and expertise that David possessed and acquired. Any hospital system will be lucky and will greatly benefit to have him on staff. Thank you Myriam" and "It is a pleasure to write a recommendation for Dr David Schwartz. I have worked with David for 10+ years and remain amazed of his many gifts and abilities. As a advanced practice nurse with more than 40 years of critical care and teaching experience, I have never worked with a more capable and caring physician. David's commitment to excellence and relentless perseverance have resulted in numerous successful programs to benefit patients. I will give just one. Under his leadership as chair of Resuscitation Committee we were able to put into practice a standard for cardiac survivors which included induced hypothermia. Though this is a labor intensive process Dave's great connection with the critical care nurses and physician resulted in their embracing and advocating for its use. The success of this program led to David's submission and acceptance of poster presentation at the Society of Critical Medicine's Annual Meeting. Dr Schwartz is a brilliant diagnostician and readily shares his skills and passion for knowledge with the other members of the health care team. A gifted teacher he is also and avid learner and will intently listen to another perspective. As a leader of many quality improvement projects i can assure you there wouldn't be anyone better to have on your team. David has a scientific mind and can quickly cut through the superlatives and keep focused on the goals. He has the uncanny ability to decipher what is important and relevant. With David's numerous skills and attributes he is the doctor you want on your team. Whether quality improvement , education, clinical expertise, or talking to a family it is Dr Schwartz everyone turns to. I would be happy to enumerate on the numerous examples of my experience with David's success. Feel free to contact me at this site.
