Founded in 1871 as the Roosevelt Hospital, Mount Sinai West is a full-service, 505-bed medical center, with a long history of clinical excellence. Mount Sinai West has been home to the C.V. Starr Hand Surgery Center and one of the oldest teaching hand surgery fellowships in the country since 1952, and is renowned for multiple surgical specialties, its robust maternity service, and delivering the highest quality, patient-centered care.
We have a 24/7, state-of-the-art emergency department on 59th Street between Ninth and Tenth Avenues that sees more than 65,000 patients a year, and the hospital has been named a designated stroke center by the New York State Department of Health. We are also a teaching facility for the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, preparing the next generation of physicians for their career in medicine.
