Bassett Healthcare
Located in
the Village of Cooperstown, Bassett Healthcare offers one of the best
rural healthy systems in the country 
The Bassett Healthcare Campus, beautifully situated amidst rolling hills and Otsego Lake. Editor's note and testimonial: As tourists who
visit Cooperstown, N.Y., several times a year, we value the presence of
Bassett Healthcare, a state-of-the-art facility not typically found in
rural areas. With a big campus and a thoroughly professional staff,
they helped us immensely when health problems affected our family.
Being on vacation and getting sick is not exactly joyful, but Bassett's
fine staff made us feel welcome, treated us promptly, and diagnosed us
accurately -- the way we typically experience in our native Boston,
Mass., which is renowned for its medical institutions. It is comforting
to know that a rural hospital's commitment to excellence exists in our
favorite vacation destination, the great Village of Cooperstown.
The facility is
clean, has comfortable waiting rooms, and also a marvelous view of the
Susquehanna River! If it wasn't a hospital, this would be a great
location for a very, very large hotel. But, fortunately, Cooperstown
does have Bassett Healthcare. We are most grateful, as tourists, of its
vital presence.
