Mary GarrityI worked with “Doc” for 18 years in the Uniontown Hospital ED. Learned so much from him and am so proud to have worked with such a compassionate, brilliant doctor.

Scott LaClairWas a medic under Doc Corrado from the early 80s to the late 90s. Words fail to express what an asset he was to EMS and the community. He was a mentor that you were blessed to have! The guy is truly a Superman in the eyes of the EMS community in Southwestern Pennsylvania. In almost 20 years I never witnessed him rattled regardless of how injured or how many injured we delivered to his ER. The manner in which he assisted EMS people and his own staff was always in a kind manner, I never heard a raised voice. I loved putting in volunteer hours in the ER when he was on duty. Doc is just a tremendous man with an integrity second to none.
During his time at Uniontown Hospital he passed on many prestigious, high paying positions to remain in Uniontown. He is a legend in the community of emergency service and without question it was the greatest of my life’s opportunities to serve under him! Thank You Doc for all the years.

KarenDr. corrado saved my life at 6 yrs old!! I fell sick for a couple weeks, saw a couple other Dr.s in the ER! Was diagnosed with tonsillitis! I got so bad I was not able to swallow my own spit! My mom took me too Uniontown’s ER, where I was meant by Dr. Corrado!! He ran a new test for mono, and it was positive! My spleen was so enlarged I had to stay home from school for weeks! I was days away from it bursting! Years later he became my family Dr.! Thank you for the amazing care! Much love, & prayers sent to you! God bless!

SANDY SEXTONI worked with Dr. Corrado for over 23 years. First, he was my son’s dr. My son had problems and was under ole doc’s care, when young doc took over his practice. Everything I have learned over the years, doc is one of the kindess caring human beings around. He loved his paients and would go up on the floors to check on them after he had admitted them, 2 0r 3 days earlier. I have seen doc go to peoples home to make sure they were ok. Thank you doc for all your kindness, your worring, your love for your staff. We all love you. Please take care of yourself and Carol thru this awful thing we are all going thru. Please know you were loved and when we get together, your name is always brought up in a positive mannor. God bless you.
