NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, chartered as The New York and Presbyterian Hospital by the State of New York in 1996, was formed in 1998 with the merger of two large, previously independent hospitals, the New York Hospital and Presbyterian Hospital1. The NYPH system includes a variety of outlying hospitals that had previously been acquired by NYH or Presbyterian; these hospitals stretch throughout the five boroughs, Westchester County, Long Island and New Jersey. In the name of the hospital, there is no space in "NewYork". NYPH is now the largest private employer in New York City. The two medical schools remain essentially autonomous, though there is increasing cooperation and coordination of clinical, research, and residency training programs. The hospitals have merged administrations, with Herb Pardes, M.D., leading the combined hospitals since 2001. NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital is one of the most comprehensive university hospitals in the world, with leading specialists in every field of medicine. The institution's five main facilities are: *NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/ Columbia University Medical Center *NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/ Weill Cornell Medical Center *The Allen Hospital *Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital of NewYork-Presbyterian *NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/ Westchester Division |
