Mount Sinai St Luke’s serves the West Side of Manhattan, including Midtown West, the Upper West Side, the Columbia University undergraduate campus in Morningside Heights and Harlem. Over one million residents call this area home and represent every ethnic and socioeconomic group, providing a diverse patient population and broad spectrum of pathology at every stage of illness. MSSL and MSW provide primary- to tertiary-level care to local, tri-state and international patients.
Mount Sinai Beth Israel, which includes the ambulatory site, Mount Sinai Downtown Union Square, is the Lower Manhattan campus for the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. This tertiary care referral center serves the lower east side of Manhattan and the surrounding boroughs.
