Kenmore Mercy Hospital

Kenmore Mercy Hospital Founded in 1951, Kenmore Mercy was established by the Sisters of Mercy to respond to the needs of Buffalo’s northern neighborhoods.

It continues to grow and evolve to meet the community’s changing needs. Today, the hospital provides its patients with a nationally recognized knee & hip center, state-of-the-art emergency care, stroke care, medical rehabilitation unit, sleep medicine, imaging technology, palliative care, interventional radiology, cardiopulmonary testing, and enhanced medical, surgical, and critical care services. As a Joint Commission accredited hospital, Kenmore Mercy meets the highest quality and safety standards in the industry. This is further demonstrated by its consecutive "A" ratings from The Leapfrog Group since 2014. As of 2017, Kenmore Mercy is Western New York’s only Magnet-recognized hospital.

While this news is a relief to fans, concussions remain a common, and often invisible, part of football. Even mild injuries deserve proper care to support full brain recovery. 💙

Dr. Minsoo Kang, board‑certified neurologist and headache specialist, shares expert guidance for families and young athletes.
