When you need medical care, you want a place that feels both capable and caring. That’s what St. Elizabeth Medical Center has provided to New Yorkers for decades. We started as a neighborhood hospital and have grown into a full-service medical center, but our focus has never changed: to offer you expert treatment delivered with compassion and respect. We understand that a hospital visit can feel overwhelming, so we’re dedicated to making your experience as clear, comfortable, and supportive as possible.
What Guides Us Every Day
Every decision we make is rooted in a patient-first philosophy. Our vision is to be New York’s most trusted healthcare provider, where innovative medicine meets unwavering kindness. Our mission is simpler: to give every person who comes to us access to safe, high-quality care that makes sense for their life.
These aren’t just words on a wall. You’ll see our values reflected in every interaction:
- Doing the Right Thing: We believe in honesty and transparency, with our teams and with you.
- Seeing the Person: We listen first. Your concerns, your questions, and your comfort are central to your care plan.
- A Drive to Be Better: From our surgeons to our environmental staff, we take pride in our work and constantly seek to improve.
- Working as One: Your health often involves more than one specialist. Our doctors, nurses, and therapists communicate closely to create a unified approach for you.
- Embracing Smart Advances: We carefully evaluate new technologies and techniques, adopting those that truly benefit patient safety and recovery.
Spaces Designed for Healing and Precision
We’ve built our campus to be a place of calm and competence. You’ll find private, sunlit patient rooms, advanced operating theaters for the most delicate procedures, and dedicated intensive care units staffed by specialized teams. To get answers quickly, we use high-resolution imaging like 3T MRI and rapid CT scans, supported by an on-site lab. And because health concerns don’t follow a schedule, our Emergency Room, pharmacy, and ambulance services are ready around the clock.
Expert Care Across the Medical Spectrum
Having multiple specialties in one location means more coordinated care for you. If your treatment involves several areas of medicine, our experts can easily consult with each other, saving you time and ensuring nothing is overlooked. Our core specialties include:
- Heart and Vascular Services: From preventive cardiology and stenting to open-heart surgery.
- Neuroscience Institute: Comprehensive care for stroke, spine disorders, epilepsy, and brain tumors.
- Orthopedics and Sports Medicine: Specializing in arthritis, injuries, and joint restoration with advanced surgical options.
- Women’s and Children’s Health: Full-spectrum care for mothers and babies, including a high-level Neonatal ICU for the tiniest patients.
- Oncology Program: A collaborative cancer care model that coordinates medical oncology, radiation, and surgery.
- Essential Specialized Care: Including digestive health (gastroenterology), skin care (dermatology), ENT, eye care, dental services, and pediatrics.
The Team Beside You
Technology is vital, but people heal people. Our physicians are not only highly qualified but are also teachers, researchers, and, most importantly, compassionate caregivers. They lead a team of nurses, physiotherapists, nutritionists, and patient advocates who are dedicated to your well-being. We’re here to explain your options, answer your questions, and provide the reassurance that comes from knowing you’re in capable hands.
Technology with a Purpose
We invest in technology that makes care safer, less invasive, and more connected. This includes robotic-assisted surgery for precision and quicker healing, a secure telemedicine system for consultations from home, and a digital health record that keeps your entire care team updated in real time.
Support That Extends Beyond Treatment
We know healthcare involves more than medical procedures. Our financial counselors will help you understand costs and work directly with your insurance provider. Our patient navigators can assist with scheduling and resources. We actively seek your feedback because your perspective is crucial in helping us serve you better.
Accreditations That Reflect Our Standards
We voluntarily undergo rigorous evaluations to ensure we meet national benchmarks for safety and quality. St. Elizabeth Medical Center is accredited by The Joint Commission, one of the highest recognitions a hospital can achieve. We are also grateful for the awards we’ve received from patient care organizations, which we see as a sign that we’re fulfilling our promise to the community.
Our Commitment to a Healthier New York
Our role extends into the neighborhoods we serve. We host free community health screenings, educational seminars on managing chronic conditions, and support programs for vulnerable populations, because a healthier city starts with accessible health knowledge.
