Emergency Care
ColumbiaDoctors emergency physicians serve the northern Manhattan community, delivering 24/7/365 care in three Emergency Departments:
• NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia Medical Center Adult Emergency Department
• NewYork-Presbyterian/The Allen Hospital Emergency Department
ColumbiaDoctors emergency physicians specialize in evaluating, diagnosing, and treating patients with immediate medical needs. The complaints addressed by our emergency physicians range from simple to complex, and include injuries such as lacerations or orthopedic complaints, and acute episodes and illnesses such as heart failure, pneumonia, and internal bleeding.
The three Emergency Departments are all designated as 911 receiving centers, and the Alexandra & Steven Cohen Children's Emergency Department is a Level I trauma center. The connection between our Emergency Departments and the broader academic medical center means that patients receive the highest level of continuing care from experts in virtually every subspecialty.
