Borough President Markowitz apparently needed some help cutting the ribbon on New York Methodist Hospital’s new $2-million Advanced Women’s Imaging and Prenatal Testing Center, so the hospital called in Miss USA, Crystle Stewart.

New York Methodist Hospital certainly knows how to win our coveted “Photo op of the Week” award. Why, just over a month ago, the Park Slope-based medical center won the prize with a classic shot of Dr. Ivan Grunberger treating a patient.

Last week, the hospital invited us to cover a visit by Miss USA Crystle Stewart, as she cut the ribbon on the facility’s new Advanced Women’s Imaging and Prenatal Testing Center on July 31.

The 26-year-old Texan opened the $2-million facility with the help of Borough President Markowitz.
