Mount Sinai Hospital is a medical center on the Upper East Side between Madison and Fifth Avenue, offering healthcare across multiple buildings within a connected complex. The facility houses specialized departments for surgery, internal medicine, pediatrics, and emergency care available around the clock.
The institution began in 1852 as Jews' Hospital with 45 beds in a building on West 28th Street to serve needy immigrants. The move to the current location happened in 1904, when the hospital occupied its grounds on the Upper East Side.
The facility takes its name from the biblical mountain where Moses received the Ten Commandments, reflecting the values of its founding community through charitable care. The hospital shapes the neighborhood street scene with its modern buildings and the constant flow of doctors, nurses, and visitors.
Visitors reach the facility through several entrances along Madison Avenue and can see patients during daily visiting hours. The center also offers telemedicine consultations for those who do not require an in-person appointment.
The hospital provides medical staff for the US Open tennis tournament and treats players for injuries during matches. This partnership has linked the world of sports with emergency medicine in the heart of New York for years.
