New Names for MA Hospitals

Massachusetts has a lot of well-known and respected hospitals.  One of them is called Mass Eye and Ear.  Funny name for a hospital if you ask me.  Boston once had a maternity hospital back in the early 1800’s named the Boston Lying-In Hospital.  They sure don’t name them like they used to.  And I like the Floating Hospital for Children; now that’s a fun name for a very serious need.  But back to the Eye and Ear – I like it because it is so specific.  You got problems with your eyes – glaucoma, cataracts, a stye; need a wax irrigation –  head on over to Mass Eye and Ear.   Probably not the place to be for a knee replacement.  Which brings me to some new names for hospitals that would assist consumers in selecting the proper care.
