Elmhurst Hospital Center

The Elmhurst Hospital Center is located in the midst of the most ethnically diverse square mile in the world. A recently renovated 618-bed municipal hospital located in Queens, New York, it maintains a firm affiliation with the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Both Internal Medicine and Pediatrics residents spend time at this facility.

To facilitate communication between physicians and patients, there are over 100 language translators on staff at Elmhurst. Because of its unique multiethnic patient population, Elmhurst offers a very special opportunity to care for patients with diseases rarely seen in other hospitals in the United States. The hospital provides all levels of care to over one million residents of western Queens. The emergency room and outpatient clinics are among the busiest in New York City.

While exceptionally busy, residents consistently rate their time as Elmhurst as among the best aspects of their training because of the enormous variety of cases and challenges posed by working with such a diverse population.
