St. Joseph’s Health is proud to welcome Miranda Gonzalez, MD, to its team. Dr. Gonzalez has joined St. Joseph’s Physicians Primary Care in Liverpool, New York, following the successful completion of her family medicine residency at St. Joseph’s Health Hospital. In addition to caring for patients in the outpatient setting, she also serves as a hospitalist, providing expert inpatient care alongside our highly skilled clinical team.

Dr. Gonzalez received her Bachelor of Arts in Biology, with minors in music and psychology, from CUNY Baruch College in New York City. While there, she received two scholarships and later held positions as adjunct lecturer and research assistant at the college. She went on to receive her Doctor of Medicine from SUNY Upstate Medical University College of Medicine in Syracuse.

“I appreciate the smaller, yet lively city of Syracuse. I decided to stay at St. Joseph’s because of the caring and compassionate environment,” said Dr. Gonzalez. “It is exciting to be able to make deep connections with patients and follow long-term milestones, as well as take care of patients in their most vulnerable moments while hospitalized.”

Dr. Gonzalez has been published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology for her research on non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma with extra-nodal involvement of the colon.

Outside of work, she enjoys reading, hiking with her dogs, and traveling.

Dr. Gonzalez is seeing patients at St. Joseph’s Physicians Primary Care at 5100 W. Taft Road, Suite 1D, Liverpool, NY 13088. Please call 315-452-2828 to schedule an appointment.

We need your help. Severe winter weather has forced more than 500 Red Cross blood drives to close, impacting our ability to collect 15,000+ lifesaving blood and platelet donations amid a severe blood shortage.

Please, help ensure hospitals have sufficient supplies. If you live in an unaffected area, make an appointment to donate blood: https://rdcrss.org/45znkwf

Meet our “Pink Cadillacs.” 💗

Thanks to a generous grant from the Flora Bernice Smith Foundation, St. Joseph’s Health recently added new Staxi wheelchairs to our day surgery discharge unit. These pink wheelchairs make patient transport safer, smoother and more comfortable for everyone involved.

With over 4,400 patients supported last year and more expected in 2026, these wheelchairs are already making a difference. Colleagues appreciate their ease of handling, and patients value the comfort and stability they provide.

We are incredibly grateful to our Grants Team and the Flora Bernice Smith Foundation for helping us continue to invest in patient safety and compassionate care.

During a recent clinical rotation, Natasha and Vianney demonstrated outstanding teamwork, critical thinking, and strong patient advocacy, ultimately contributing to faster intervention and improved patient safety. 🎯

While Natasha briefly stepped out to prepare medications, Vianney remained at the patient’s bedside, monitoring closely. During this time, Vianney noticed the patient suddenly became unresponsive, immediately recognized the change in condition, and called for help without hesitation.

Because Natasha had previously spoken up and voiced concerns about the patient’s status to the St. Joseph's Health - Syracuse, NY nursing team, they were already aware of potential risks. When Vianney called for assistance, the team was able to act more quickly and begin urgent care and diagnostic testing without delay.

This event highlights the impact of:
- Clinical judgment
- Situational awareness
- Effective communication
- Patient advocacy
- Collaborative teamwork

Together, Natasha and Vianney’s actions exemplify what it means to go Above & Beyond in patient care. Their professionalism and dedication ensured the patient received timely, life‑preserving attention.

Congratulations to both students for demonstrating excellence in nursing practice! 🎉🥳

🚨WINTER STORM WARNING🚨

Syracuse, NY — The Syracuse Fire Department is fully staffed and prepared to respond as the upcoming storm moves through the area. Our crews and equipment are ready to operate in hazardous winter conditions, and we will remain in service citywide to ensure residents receive help quickly and safely when needed.

Cold temperatures and deteriorating weather can create additional challenges on emergency scenes, including the risk of freezing water during firefighting operations. In anticipation of those conditions, the Syracuse Fire Department has contingency measures in place to support our personnel and maintain operational effectiveness during extended incidents.

As part of that preparation, the Syracuse Fire Department can deploy MERV 1, a converted transit bus that provides warmth and shelter for firefighters and individuals affected by an emergency during long-duration incidents.

While we are ready for the storm, we strongly encourage community members to exercise caution and prioritize safety. If travel is not necessary, residents should consider staying off the roads, using care with space heaters and alternative heating sources, and taking steps to prevent slips, falls, and winter-related emergencies. These precautions help reduce risk and keep the need for emergency responses to a minimum during severe weather.

The Syracuse Fire Department will continue monitoring conditions closely and stands ready to respond in any weather to protect life and property.

Winter weather is forecasted. ❄️ It's time to be mindful of injuries related to shoveling snow.

Although an excellent physical activity, shoveling can put stress on the body, which can cause injury. Every winter, hospital admissions of people experiencing chest pain or heart attacks increase after snowfall. In addition to heart-related health issues, there is an increase in hospital visits for sprains and strains, particularly of the back, shoulders or hips.

Take action if you are experiencing a heart attack or other concerning event. Call 911 📱 and visit St. Joseph's Health Hospital Emergency Department for quality care.

Visitation Update: To protect our patients, visitors and staff, visitation will be limited effective Monday, Dec. 8. Click for details.
