NYU Langone Health is ranked the #1 comprehensive academic medical center and the #1 ambulatory care system for quality and safety in the U.S. by Vizient, Inc., the nation's largest healthcare performance improvement organization.[5] NYU Langone is among the best hospitals in the U.S., according to "U.S. News & World Report’s" 2023–24 “Best Hospitals Honor Roll,” earning top 10 rankings in 10 specialties. NYU Grossman School of Medicine is ranked #10 in the nation on U.S. News & World Report’s 2023–24 list of “Best Graduate Schools for Research.”[6][7] Rusk Rehabilitation is ranked the #1 rehabilitation program in New York State and one of the top five in the country by U.S. News & World Report. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has awarded the institution a five-star rating.[8][9] NYU Langone Health's four hospitals have all earned the Magnet designation for excellence in nursing and quality patient care from the American Nurses Credentialing Center, an honor achieved by only 9.4% of hospitals in the U.S.[citation needed][10]
NYU Langone Health
NYU Langone Health’s precursor, the Medical College of New York University, was founded in 1841.[11] Among the college's six original faculty members were renowned surgeon Valentine Mott, MD, and John Revere, MD, the youngest son of patriot Paul Revere.[11][12]
In 1898, the Medical College consolidated with Bellevue Hospital Medical College, forming University and Bellevue Hospital Medical College of New York University, established at 26th Street and First Avenue in New York City, New York.[11][13] This began NYU Langone Health's long relationship with its primary teaching affiliate, NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue, America's oldest public hospital, founded in 1736.[14]
NYU Langone Health's first hospital, established in 1948 as University Hospital on lower Broadway, was created through a merger of the New York Post-Graduate Hospital and the New York Skin and Cancer Hospital.[11] In 1963, a newly-acquired site in midtown Manhattan—bounded by First Avenue and the Franklin D. Roosevelt East River Drive, between 30th and 34th Streets—became the home of University Hospital's new 18-story building, which housed expanded research labs.[15][16]
University Hospital was renamed Tisch Hospital in 1989 in gratitude to Laurence A. and Preston Robert Tisch and their families, benefactors of New York University.[16]
In 2008, NYU Medical Center, as the institution was then known, was renamed the NYU Elaine A. and Kenneth G. Langone Medical Center in honor of its chair of the Board of Trustees and his wife, whose total unrestricted gifts of $200 million represent the largest donation in the institution's history.[17][18] In 2017, NYU Langone Medical Center was renamed NYU Langone Health.[19]
NYU Langone Health's long-time affiliate, the Hospital for Joint Diseases, now known as NYU Langone Orthopedic Hospital, was the first hospital to merge with the institution in 2006, becoming its dedicated orthopedic hospital.[20][21][22]
In 2016, NYU Langone Health acquired Lutheran Medical Center, a 444-bed hospital in southwest Brooklyn, renaming it NYU Langone Hospital—Brooklyn.[23][24][14]
In 2019, NYU Langone Health acquired Winthrop University Hospital, a 591-bed hospital in Mineola on Long Island, renaming it NYU Langone Hospital—Long Island.[25][1][26]
In 2023, NYU Langone Health’s revenue was more than $12 billion, including more than $4.9 billion in philanthropy since 2007.[citation needed]
NYU Grossman School of Medicine
When NYU Grossman School of Medicine was founded in 1841, its precursor, the Medical College of New York University, had an inaugural class of 239 students.[11] NYU Grossman School of Medicine was ranked #2 for research on U.S. News & World Report’s 2022–23 list of “Best Medical Schools: Research.”[27]
In 2007, Robert I. Grossman, M.D., an internationally distinguished neuroradiologist who had served as chair of NYU Langone Health's Department of Radiology since 2001, was appointed the Dean of NYU School of Medicine and CEO of NYU Medical Center, as they were then named.[28][29] In 2019, the School was renamed NYU Grossman School of Medicine in honor of his academic achievements.[30][29] In 2010, Grossman introduced Curriculum for the 21st Century (C21), a new curriculum that allows students to have earlier and more frequent interaction with patients.[31]
In 2013, NYU Grossman School of Medicine began offering an accelerated three-year M.D. degree for select medical students to pursue a career in either primary care or the medical specialty of their choice.[32] The first of its kind in the United States, the program is designed to ease the financial burden of medical school and launch medical careers one year earlier than traditional students.[32]
In 2018, the school became the first top-ranked medical school in the nation to provide full-tuition scholarships to reduce the staggering debt incurred by medical students due to the ever-rising cost of their education.[29][33] In 2019, NYU Langone Health expanded its medical student training when it launched NYU Long Island School of Medicine, a joint venture between New York University and NYU Langone Health.[31][32] The school provides full-tuition scholarships and offers an accelerated three-year M.D. program that focuses on primary care.[32][34]
NYU Grossman School of Medicine has 29 academic departments in the clinical and basic sciences.[30] In addition to the medical degree, students can also earn a dual M.D./master's degree.[35] Medical students, residents, and fellows at NYU Grossman School of Medicine receive much of their clinical training at NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue. The school also maintains affiliations with several other hospitals, including the VA New York Harbor Healthcare System, NYC Health + Hospitals/Gouverneur in Manhattan, and NYC Health + Hospitals/Woodhull in Brooklyn.[36][37]
NYU Grossman School of Medicine Nobel Laureates
NYU Grossman School of Medicine counts among its faculty and alumni four Nobel laureates:
- Otto Loewi, M.D. (1936), who determined that the primary language of nerve cell communication is chemical rather than electrical[38]
- Severo Ochoa, M.D. (1959), who conducted landmark studies in biochemical genetics and nucleic acids[39]
- Baruj Benacerraf, M.D. (1980), who performed groundbreaking research on genetic regulation of the immune system[40]
- Eric Kandel, M.D. (2000), who discovered molecular processes that underlie learning and memory[41]
Controversies
In November 2023, NYU Langone Health fired Benjamin Neel, head of NYU Langone Health’s Perlmutter Cancer Center, for social media posts he made on X (formerly Twitter) regarding the Israel-Hamas war, in which Neel reposted content that critics have referred to as "racist" and "anti-Arab."[42] A spokesperson for NYU Langone Health defending the firing, saying that all employees had been reminded "several times" in the month before Neel's firing of NYU Langone Health's social media policy and "high standards."[43][44] In response, Neel filed a lawsuit against NYU Langone Health for wrongful termination.[43][44]
