Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ: HSIC), the world’s largest provider of health care products and services to office-based dental, animal health and medical practitioners, today reminded its customers that the Henry Schein Disaster Relief Hotline is open for dentists, physicians and veterinarians who experience operational, logistical or financial issues as a result of the disastrous storms in the South Central region of the U.S. The toll-free number for all Henry Schein customers is 800-999-9729. The Hotline is operational from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. ET.
“Our hearts and prayers are with the families of those who have lost their lives, or are still missing, as a result of the terrible storms and flooding that continue to ravage states in the South Central part of the U.S.,” said Stanley M. Bergman, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Henry Schein. “For our customers who have practices affected by the storms, we are here to help, and encourage practitioners to call our hotline for assistance.”
In addition to opening its Disaster Relief Hotline, Henry Schein is offering support to its strategic non-governmental organization partners who are assessing the need for health care product donations to assist in relief efforts.
Because natural disasters–such as hurricanes, tornadoes and heavy storms–typically strike many regions of the United States throughout the summer months, Henry Schein is reminding customers that its Disaster Relief Hotline will remain open to provide assistance to practitioners adversely affected by future disasters.
