NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital Columbia and Cornell

NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital of Columbia and Cornell is ranked in top 10 USA clinics and is the best hospital in the multi-million metropolis. The vast experience of doctors is ensured by the constant demand for their services. As a result of this development cycle, more than 2,000,000 patients are admitted to the clinic every year.

NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital is considered to be one of the largest clinics in the US due to many factors. These are the location — a huge metropolis; great investment in the development of the clinic; and the involvement of world-class specialists. The high level of medicine is attracting patients, the doctors a becoming more and more experienced, the clinic is receiving more funding, and the hospital's overall level of development is constantly increasing.

The clinic has a capacity of 2,600 beds, over 20,000 of employees, nearly 6,500 doctors. All of them are working for the sake of health of more than
2,000,000 patients who are accepted at the clinic annually.

Being an academic centre, the clinic works with famous educational institutions, such as Weill Cornell Medicine and the College of Doctors and Surgeons of Columbia University. Here they teach young specialists and improve the skills of the experienced doctors. For patients, this means that physicians, teachers and researchers will accept and treat their patients with the most advanced techniques and individually develop new treatment plans for particularly difficult cases.

The hospital is divided into several buildings and each of them works with its own medical college or university and has departments of different profiles. Here they provide the whole range of medical care: from cold treatment to heart transplantation and treatment of pediatric oncology. The departments' qualification made the clinic famous far beyond the US borders.

It is necessary to single out the the Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center which employs talented researchers, scientists and clinicians. They are responsible for more than 200 innovations in the field of oncology, and the work is continuing. Thus, the hospitals' patients can be the first to receive cancer drugs that would be available in other home countries only in a few years at best.

Another important area of the hospital is minimally invasive surgery. Operations which do not harm healthy tissues are robotised, and during neurosurgical and cardiological surgeries microscopes are used, for the better surgical accuracy. The Center for Pediatric Medicine treats all diseases of children, including conduction of surgeries for congenital heart disease and the treatment of pediatric cancer cases.
