Update: LMH got the MR it is installed and we are doing MRI's. Our MRI committee did a wonderful job by keeping their community involved and voting everyday. Past comments are so un neccessary. Good Luck to SRH hopefully your MRI will be there soon
says ... on Tuesday, Feb 5 at 4:00 PM
If the comments offended you , ever so sorry...actually you didn't enter faily you already had an MRI in your hospital and your video contained professional news film footage also not allowed if you read the rules on the contest. These are the facts.
says ... on Sunday, Jan 27 at 8:48 PM
This shocked me! Such harsh comments. SRH entered fairly-we didn't ask for a tornado to rip out our hosp to get an MRI. Ins. will help rebuild-not cover it all! We voted for our hosp; we are loyal. We still have the right to vote freely in America!
says ... on Saturday, Jan 26 at 10:55 PM
Hello America key words to winning an MRI you needed to simply have QUALIFIED & VALID votes. Truth & honesty have prevailed again..Thanks to everyone accross the country who voted. LOCKPORT MEMORIAL IS THE WINNER OF THE MRI !!!!!
says ... on Friday, Jan 25 at 3:38 PM
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to everyone who voted. LMH won because they had the most QUALIFIED votes. It has been a wonderful day here at LMH. Siemans Corp. is a very gracious company. Our THANKS to you also. The very best to all in the contest.
says ... on Friday, Jan 25 at 12:26 PM
THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT!!!!LOCKPORT WON!!!!WE NOW HAVE OUR OWN MRI...THANKS TO ALL THE COMMUNITIES FOR YOUR SUPPORT...
says ... on Thursday, Jan 24 at 9:57 PM
It's sad to read SRH blogs wanting our community to vote for them,tackie? yes. May the hospital with the most votes win. Contest was not meant to be a pity party or a sympathy plea. So let the votes show who is the winner.Proud to be part of Lockport
says ... on Thursday, Jan 24 at 9:51 PM
Tomorrow will end the "IS IT HERE YET" contest and hopefully it will be here.Out community was great the way they rallied for LMH thanks for all the votes everyone lets hope it will be enough in the end...LOCKPORT MEMORIAL ROCKS! great campaign job !
says ... on Thursday, Jan 24 at 9:44 PM
Lockport is a wonderful community/hospital that took alot of critisism from other hospitals regarding the contest. We are small but truth and honesty will prevail when the winner is revealed good luck to everyone in the contest. Keep the faith.
says ... on Thursday, Jan 17 at 9:55 AM
Oh well, Lockport put up a good fight and 3rd place is not bad. With over a quarter of a million vote, the people all over the world support Sumter and lets hope that they get it. We will know on Jan. 18th. Maybe Siemens will give one to the top 3
says ... on Friday, Dec 28 at 6:54 PM
Grant Regional is locked into 2nd, so ALL other hospitals should vote for SRH or them because no one else has a real chance of winning unless a miracle happens...
says ... on Thursday, Dec 27 at 10:54 AM
It has been very amusing throughout this contest how Sumter kept their eye on our community, seems like SRH had it sewn up from the start with there poor me video and America bought it...Remember all facilities have insurance to rebuild if needed.
says ... on Tuesday, Dec 18 at 12:23 AM
Hey LMH supporters, you can always vote for SRH. We can use your votes!
says ... on Sunday, Dec 16 at 12:07 AM
Why are you not voting for your local hospital LMH. Such selfish people. We are voting from out of state because we know LMH deserves our votes plus yours.
says ... on Thursday, Dec 13 at 12:09 PM
WHERE HAVE ALL THE VOTERS GONE?????????????? WHERE IS THE SUPPORT? THANK YOU TO ALL WHO ARE VOTING!!!!!
says ... on Wednesday, Dec 12 at 6:09 PM
come on niagara county..where is your show of support...we are looking really sad...we have thousands of people and we are getting only a couple of hundred votes a day..it really is sad that you can't count on your community for support..way to go!!!
says ... on Wednesday, Dec 12 at 3:40 PM
I voted...you can help this Cheektowaga family out by viewing this video; there is no daily limit: http://youtube.com/watch?v=JIKP0PSan1Y
says ... on Tuesday, Dec 11 at 4:08 PM
COME ON NEWFANE..LET'S START VOTING..THE HOSPITAL FROM WISCONSIN IS GOING TO BEAT US NOW AND THEIR POPULATION IS 4,000...WE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF OURSELVES..LET'S VOTE DAILY AND WIN THIS MRI.WE NEED IT..DO YOUR COUNTY PROUD..LET'S SHOW THEM ALL!!!!!!!
says ... on Tuesday, Dec 11 at 12:12 AM
Grant Regional and Cooper Green are making surges, so the contest is Far from over. May the most deserving hospital win!
says ... on Monday, Dec 10 at 2:22 PM
COME ON NIAGARA COUNTY..WE ONLY HAVE A FEW WEEKS LEFT...ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN..BUT YOU HAVE TO VOTE DAILY....DON'T GIVE UP ON LMH YET...HELP US WIN...A WIN FOR LMH IS A WIN FOR ALL OF NIAGARA COUNTY...VOTE..VOTE..VOTE...EEVERYDAY....

Oh LOCKPORT, you have been a great support to our contest and LMH thanks everyone who has voted... only a couple weeks left please pass the word on and keep voting LMH says Thanks for everyones support. Happy Holidays!!!
says ... on Sunday, Dec 9 at 11:08 PM
Sumter has been watching WNY from the start cause if they wern't playing the sympathy card for votes Lockport the "smalltown" hospital who is in need of an MRI our facility is old an far from the new facility Sumter will have VOTE for LMH if you care
says ... on Sunday, Dec 9 at 6:34 PM
No one is slamming lockport, and i am sure it is a great hospital. The VOTERS will decide who needs the contest more, not who had a disaster or the best story. May the most deserving hotel win...
says ... on Sunday, Dec 9 at 12:25 AM
This contest has been great for LMH,the area has been slammed by Sumter and thats what they feel they gotta do,WNY may not win a super bowl,or a Stanley Cup.They have printed we are looser's..but WNY'ers have alot of heart. KEEP THE FAITH and votes
says ... on Saturday, Dec 8 at 11:43 PM
lockport hospital deserves an mri. you people in the surrounding area should vote for lmh,you should be ashamed to not help your local hospital. stop and think if you had a disaster in your area you may need more mri machines. do good and vote lmh.
says ... on Friday, Dec 7 at 5:54 PM
we don't need to buy votes...we are playing by the rules..every town has something bad that has happened.every deserves one..we want it done fairly..how is sumter playing fair when they can't install the mri until 2010 and the rules say 2008..
says ... on Friday, Dec 7 at 11:04 AM
Wow, Lockport! Now you are trying to buy votes. Are you that desperate?
says ... on Wednesday, Dec 5 at 11:37 PM
Great advertising ploy Seimans...be certain a hospital destroyed by a tornado has the winning video makes Seimans look like this awesome company saving this poor"smalltown" hospital.All entrys are from "smalltown" as part of the rules. Yah Seimans !!
says ... on Wednesday, Dec 5 at 11:31 PM
I am from a small town in WNY an I think Sumter is the only hospital entered in this contest that has a great publicity plea and will make Siemans look great in the end for helping this devastated community...thats the reality...Cudo's to you Siemans
says ... on Wednesday, Dec 5 at 8:36 PM
i agree, you should vote for your own community...show your support...every hospital needs one, that's why they entered..but everyone SHOULD be voting for their own community..
says ... on Wednesday, Dec 5 at 1:02 PM
Each hospital deserves it just as much as the next. That's why they entered. I believe you should support YOUR community! That's what all of Eastern Niagara County should do. This has nothing to do with weather. VOTE FOR YOUR COMMUNITY HOSPITAL-LMH!
says ... on Wednesday, Dec 5 at 12:13 PM
YES,BUFFALO IS BIGGER, BUT WHAT'S YOUR POINT...SUMTER IS ACTING LIKE THEY HAVE NOTHING AVAILABLE, WE ARE JUST POINTING OUT THAT THEY DO..WE HAVE NEVER HIDDEN THE FACT THAT WE HAVE FACILITIES WITHIN 35 MILES..WE JUST WANT SOMETHING LOCAL FOR OUR TOWN
says ... on Tuesday, Dec 4 at 9:11 AM
Isn't there also a number of state of the art MRI machines in Buffalo, only 30 minutes away from Lockport? Last I checked Buffalo is much bigger than Albany, GA.
says ... on Monday, Dec 3 at 1:30 PM
IN RESPONE TO 11/30 COMMENT ABOUT SMALL TOWN IN GEORGIA, WE ARE A SMALL TOWN TOO, AND THEY HAVE A STATE OF THE ART MRI..35 MILES AWAY AT PHOEBE PUTNEY...ISN'T THAT JUST LIKE US AND MILLARD FILLMORE GATES...SO WHAT'S YOUR POINT!
says ... on Saturday, Dec 1 at 6:05 PM
are you aware that there is another hospital 35 mins away from sumter with a state of the art mri facility???
says ... on Saturday, Dec 1 at 5:37 PM
as a new resident of lockport..i am shocked at the number of people who vote for a out-of-state hospital..where is your loyalty...are you going to fly my children to ga, if they get in a accident and need an mri...wouldn't it be nice to go to lmh????
says ... on Saturday, Dec 1 at 11:33 AM
I AM CONFUSED AS TO WHY ANY RESIDENT OF LOCKPORT WOULD VOTE FOR GA..WHEN YOU AREN'T GOING TO DRIVE TO GA FOR A MRI??DON'T YOU WANT THE BEST CARE FOR YOUR FAMILY..I FEEL SORRY FOR THEM TOO, BUT THEIR HOSPITAL ISN'T HELPING MY FAMILY LMH IS!!!
says ... on Friday, Nov 30 at 4:43 PM
WE ALL ARE AWARE THAT GA NEEDS THE MRI...SO DO WE...THE ONE IN GA ISN'T GOING TO HELP MY FAMILY IF THERE IS A ACCIDENT OR FAMILY MEMBER HAS STROKE...WE NEED ONE IN OUR AREA TO TAKE CARE OF OUR FAMILIES..ALSO LOCKPORT MRI ISN'T OPEN 24 -7
says ... on Friday, Nov 30 at 9:11 AM
Given the situation at Sumter, they really need this more than anyother hospital in the contest. I bet the folks in GA would stand behind Lockport if the siutation was reversed.
says ... on Friday, Nov 30 at 8:26 AM
Lockport is no different than the other hospitals entering this contest. They all want one! The difference is Sumter really needs it. I am sure the folks in that small Georgia town would support any of the others in their situation.
says ... on Tuesday, Nov 27 at 9:52 AM
Do you realize it will be THREE YEARS before a new hospital is built for Sumter? Comparing a blizzard to a tornado is a shame; winning a contest is not as important as your integrity. Thankfully, the voters will decide this contest!
says ... on Monday, Nov 26 at 8:14 PM
Dear Sumter, The reason insurance won't cover everything is because your replacing an old hospital with a NEW state of the art facility.Stop playing the sympathy vote.we survived the blizzard could you??? Vote for LMH Is it here yet video.We ROCK !
says ... on Monday, Nov 19 at 10:12 PM
THIS WILL HELP YOU SAVE SOME TIME COPY AND GO THANKS http://www.winanmri.com/viewer.php?videoID=90
says ... on Monday, Nov 19 at 10:12 PM
TRY THIS IT WILL HELP US OUT BIG TIME.... http://www.winanmri.com/viewer.php?videoID=90
says ... on Monday, Nov 19 at 10:11 PM
Sumter nice picture of your MRI machine in the video...hhhmmmm whats that all about ????
says ... on Monday, Nov 19 at 11:59 AM
come on lockport. let's vote everyday for our wonderful hospital.it is a shame for sumter but they are covered by insurance.god help them..but we need it in lockport
says ... on Sunday, Nov 18 at 4:22 PM
I am sure Sumter has cleared their entry with Siemens, so let's stop trying to win on a technicality. Siemens has already disqualified the cheating hospitals, and Sumter is still in it. And insurance won't pay everything so don't go there!
says ... on Sunday, Nov 18 at 1:23 AM
You never know when an MRI migh tsave a life, LMH needs one! Let's show the country that Buffalo really is the city of good neighbors and help out our neighbor to the north, VOTE LMH EVERY DAY!! It only takes a minute!!
says ... on Friday, Nov 16 at 11:57 AM
Come on Niagara County and all it's surrounding counties - we can do this! Please vote everyday, once a day - per computer - www.winanmri.com - very simple to do - maybe 10 seconds to do it! Let's get going - we have until the end of the year to win.
says ... on Friday, Nov 16 at 11:49 AM
"Is It Here Yet?" - as the Lockport Memorial Video states, "It will be, we see it in our future". Let's see the future and vote daily for Lockport to win this contest. We are the only WNY hospital in the contest. VOTE DAILY PLEASE!
says ... on Thursday, Nov 15 at 4:27 PM
VOTE FOR ELY,CAUSE WE ROCK.SUMTER SHOULD BE DISQUALIFIED.THE SPIRIT OF THIS CONTEST IS INTENDED FOR SMALLER COMMUNITIES THAT HAVE NEVER HAD AN MRI
says ... on Thursday, Nov 15 at 12:52 PM
LMH IS HOPING TO GET A BRAND NEW MRI MACHINE AND THEY AREN'T ASKING THE COMMUNITY TO DONATE EVEN ONE PENNY FOR IT. ALL THEY ARE ASKING FOR IS YOUR VOTE ONCE A DAY. I THINK WE CAN ALL AFFORD THAT. COME ON LOCKPORT, LETS GO! GO! GO!
says ... on Wednesday, Nov 14 at 9:10 AM
THANK YOU LMH FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL CARE YOU HAVE PROVIDED MY FAMILY OVER THE YEARS. THIS IS JUST ONE SMALL THING I CAN DO TO REPAY YOU. VOTE EVERY DAY FOR THE MRI MACHINE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN WE MIGHT NEED THAT NEXT. GOOD LUCK!
says ... on Tuesday, Nov 13 at 10:59 PM
What a wonderful opportunity for Lockport Memorial Hospital. Come on Erie County Hospitals, help your your Niagara County Neighbors win a FREE MRI.
says ... on Tuesday, Nov 13 at 11:15 AM
STOP! THIS CONTEST IS FOR AN IN HOUSE MRI MACHINE. PERIOD. YES, THERE IS LOCKPORT MRI DOWN THE ROAD FROM OUR HOSPITAL. HOWEVER, WILL THEY BE OPEN AT 2AM WHEN YOU COME INTO THE ER WITH AN EMERGENCY? NO! WILL THEY BE ON CALL? NO! WE NEED AN MRI!
says ... on Tuesday, Nov 13 at 12:09 AM
Come on....some hospitals would like their first MRI. Is this contest for replacements?? What is insurance money for??
says ... on Tuesday, Nov 13 at 12:08 AM
Amazing! Sumter is going to get a replacement for which they should already have insurance for. And Lockport alreay has one in town or you may have to 22 miles to have a MRI. Ely MN has none in town - pop. 2800 and you have to drive a 100 mi. 4 a MRI
says ... on Monday, Nov 12 at 7:16 PM
Let's show Sumter that we are not "losers" as their newspapers claim we are, losing Football team, can't win Stanley cup and we only have two seasons, 4th July and Winter. So according to them we will NEVER win. Let's prove them WRONG!!! VOTE LMH
says ... on Monday, Nov 12 at 3:05 PM
THIS IS SUCH A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR LMH TO EXPAND IT'S SERVICES TO THE LOCKPORT COMMUNITY. COME ON LOCKPORT, GET YOUR VOTES IN EVERYDAY.
says ... on Monday, Nov 12 at 1:57 PM
Sumter may have some insurance money, but they still need at least 12 million just to get a new hospital built. the mri machine will go a long way in helping to rebuild there. just watch both videos and let your heart decide...
says ... on Monday, Nov 12 at 11:19 AM
Lockport MRI is not affiliated with Lockport Memorial Hospital. Lockport Memorial Hospital does not have a MRI fixed or mobile. Please support your community Hospitals - you never know when you, family or friends may need them!! Vote daily WNY.
says ... on Sunday, Nov 11 at 2:46 PM
Thats great info and is for outpatient services,. This is about inpatient care. What happens if your unable to be transported to and off site MRI, hopefully you'll never have to find out. Keep Voting everyone in Lockport,It will be here soon !!!
says ... on Saturday, Nov 10 at 1:22 PM
Funny, there's no MRI scanner in Lockport??? We have I been working for the last 12 years. There is a 1.5 Tesla MRI scanner located just 2.08 miles from Lockport Hospital, and right next to the LMH Diagnostic Imaging center. Nobody says that.
says ... on Friday, Nov 9 at 9:57 PM
Hi we at LMH are unable to view the newscast at 5:30 on 11/8/07 is there somthing wrong with the video, many staff missed the segment on the MRI ...is there a problem with it....thx
says ... on Thursday, Nov 8 at 7:12 PM
Thank you WKBW for doing a great segment on the MRI contest and our need for all of WNY to get involved and vote...I appreciate the story and interest channel 7 has shown ...so "DID YOU VOTE TODAY??"
says ... on Thursday, Nov 8 at 9:22 AM
The comment about the CEO buying the MRI machine. Would you like if you employer told you to buy equipment for your place of employment??? LMH CEO has done a great job getting LMH out of the red, which is her job, not buying hospital equipment.
says ... on Thursday, Nov 8 at 7:38 AM
Wow, that is a cheap shot! Look at the hospital administrators list in the Business First, they are not overpaid individuals. I hope the system will be there to help you when you need it!
says ... on Wednesday, Nov 7 at 11:41 PM
THIS HOSPITAL REALLY NEEDS THIS MRI MACHINE
says ... on Wednesday, Nov 7 at 8:17 PM
I feel you are in the NEED & hope everyone will vote for your MRI. Those in such need, truely deserve.
says ... on Wednesday, Nov 7 at 4:21 PM
LET THE CEO'S OF OUR HEALTH CARE GROUPS CHIP IN AND BUY A MRI WITH THEIR LARGE SALARIES!!!!
says ... on Wednesday, Nov 7 at 11:39 AM
Although I agree Sumter has a tragic story, they already had an MRI and have insurance money to replace it....Lockport doesn't have and has never had one. We may not seem more deserving, but wouldn't you rather support our community-where we live!!!
says ... on Tuesday, Nov 6 at 10:25 PM
I disagree with the comment that Sumter Regional deserves the MRI more, reading articles about the tornorado indicates they had an MRI in their hospital...this contest is for hospital that do not have a fixed MRI, right?? Keep voting for LMH
says ... on Tuesday, Nov 6 at 10:20 PM
When voting rmember Sumnter Hospital has insurance to rebuild and replace their hospital which ALREADY had an MRI. They will be getting millions of dollars to rebuild..think about it.
says ... on Tuesday, Nov 6 at 3:33 PM
Lockport's video is great, but the current leader (Sumter Regional Hospital) was destroyed by a tornado earlier this year. Surely they need it more than Lockport!
