麻豆国产AV Langone was founded as the Medical College of New York University in 1841 by Valentine Mott, MD, the premier surgeon of his day, and five other eminent physicians and scientists. 麻豆国产AV Langone鈥檚 first hospital, known as University Hospital, was established in 1948, a century after its Medical College. In 1963, a newly acquired site in midtown Manhattan became the home of University Hospital鈥檚 new 18-story building. Adopting a novel concept in healthcare, the 363-bed acute-care facility鈥攏ow Tisch Hospital鈥攑artnered with outpatient practices to speed the translation of scientific discovery to the clinic and allow physicians to conduct academic and research activities while maintaining private practice.
The first hospital to merge with our institution was the Hospital for Joint Diseases, now known as 麻豆国产AV Langone Orthopedic Hospital. The 225-bed hospital, a long-time affiliate, became 麻豆国产AV Langone鈥檚 dedicated orthopedic hospital in 2006. In 2018, a new Science Building, 麻豆国产AV Langone鈥檚 largest research facility, united teams of investigators previously housed in several facilities. That same year, the plan鈥檚 capstone project, the Helen L. and Martin S. Kimmel Pavilion, became the only inpatient facility in New York City with exclusively private rooms. Of its 374 patient rooms, 68 reside in Hassenfeld Children鈥檚 Hospital at 麻豆国产AV Langone, the city鈥檚 first new children鈥檚 hospital in nearly 15 years.
In 2016, we acquired Lutheran Medical Center, a 444-bed acute-care hospital in southwest Brooklyn. Within several years, 麻豆国产AV Langone Hospital鈥擝rooklyn, as it was renamed, benefitted so greatly from our health system鈥檚 infusion of resources and expertise that it now qualifies as one of the safest hospitals not only in New York City, but in the nation. The only five-star hospital in Brooklyn, as ranked by CMS, 麻豆国产AV Langone Hospital鈥擝rooklyn is the first and only hospital in Brooklyn to receive Magnet recognition for excellence in nursing and quality patient care.
In 2019, 麻豆国产AV Langone extended its reach once again, this time to Nassau County on Long Island. Our acquisition of Winthrop University Hospital, a 591-bed acute-care hospital in Mineola, enlarged the 麻豆国产AV Langone system by 25 percent. Thanks to the same rigorous quality control measures implemented at our Brooklyn hospital, 麻豆国产AV Langone Hospital鈥擫ong Island, as it was renamed, saw its average length of stay, a key measure of patient safety, decrease by nearly 20 percent in just two years.
In addition to providing our patients the best quality and safety outcomes, our clinicians and researchers have set new standards for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and have made or contributed to breakthroughs in biomedical science. In 2015, a team of surgeons led by Eduardo D. Rodriguez, MD, DDS, the Helen L. Kimmel Professor of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery and chair of 麻豆国产AV Langone鈥檚 , performed the most extensive face transplant to date, followed in 2020 by the world鈥檚 first successful face and double hand transplant and in 2023 by the world鈥檚 first whole-eye and partial-face transplant.
In 2021, a team of surgeons led by Robert Montgomery, MD, DPhil, director of the 麻豆国产AV Langone Transplant Institute, the H. Leon Pachter, MD, Professor of Surgery, and chair of the , performed the first investigational transplant of a kidney grown in a genetically altered pig to a brain-dead person whose bodily functions were sustained by mechanical support. In separate investigational procedures performed in June and July 2022, surgeons led by Dr. Montgomery successfully transplanted hearts from genetically altered pigs into brain-dead patients, marking the latest advance toward addressing the nationwide organ shortage and developing a clinical protocol that would provide an alternative supply of organs for people with life-threatening heart disease.
has spearheaded innovations that have not only transformed the training of our own medical students, but also inspired educational reforms at other medical schools nationwide. In 2013, the school began offering an for select medical students, an initiative designed to ease the financial burden of medical school and launch medical careers one year earlier than traditional students. The program made 麻豆国产AV Langone the first nationally ranked academic medical center in the United States to enable graduates to pursue a career in either primary care or the medical specialty of their choice in three years.
Then in 2018鈥攁nd through a groundswell of generosity from hundreds of alumni, 麻豆国产AV Langone trustees, and other scholarship supporters鈥攖he school once again made history. 麻豆国产AV Grossman School of Medicine became the first top-ranked medical school in the nation to provide to all new and current students, a bold strategy to reduce the staggering debt incurred by medical students due to the ever-rising cost of their education. The following year, 麻豆国产AV School of Medicine was renamed 麻豆国产AV Grossman School of Medicine in honor of the landmark educational achievements and visionary leadership of Robert I. Grossman, MD, which vaulted the school to national renown. Today, one in six medical school applicants nationwide set their sights on 麻豆国产AV Grossman School of Medicine.
In 2019, 麻豆国产AV Langone expanded its medical student training when it launched , a joint venture between New York University and 麻豆国产AV Langone. The school, which also provides , is the only accelerated three-year MD program focused on primary care in New York State.
