Dallas-based discount home goods retailer Tuesday Morning has announced plans to close more than half its stores, including the one in Greenlawn Plaza, 773 Pulaski Road, Greenlawn which is the last one on Long Island. A closing sale at that location is in progress.

The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in February. Officials say the least profitable stores, which include all in New York State, will be closed, according to Business Insider.

The department store chain first opened its doors in 1974 and sells “name brand merchandise at unbeatable prices in a casual, no-frills atmosphere.”  In 2020, the company also filed for bankruptcy and closed over 200 stores.

While an official closing date for the Greenlawn store was not named, the business’s website says it is “closing soon.”

Catholic Health is expanding its service offerings with the opening of the Acid Reflux and Hiatal Hernia Centers of Excellence at St. Charles Hospital in Port Jefferson and St. Catherine of Siena Hospital in Smithtown. The Centers will offer minimally invasive surgical procedures as a permanent solution for acid reflux and repair of hiatal hernia. 

Heartburn and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), also known as acid reflux, is a chronic condition affecting 20 percent of people in the United States. Common symptoms include acid reflux, heartburn, nausea, persistent regurgitation, difficulty swallowing, chronic cough and chest pain.  

“We are delighted to provide this much-needed service in our community for those who are suffering from chronic heartburn and acid reflux, looking for a long-term solution,” said St. Charles and St. Catherine of Siena President James O’Connor. “Our goal is to improve the quality of life for patients suffering from heartburn and GERD, with an individualized treatment plan and successful outcome.” 

“Many patients want to eliminate dependence on medications and are concerned about long-term side effects,” said St. Charles and St. Catherine of Siena Acid Reflux and Hiatal Hernia Centers of Excellence Director Arif Ahmad, MD. “Most patients continue to regurgitate in spite of medications. Minimally invasive surgical techniques are safe alternatives that should be considered.”
