My medicine spots — 3 items
Name	Comment	Type	Address	City	Neighborhood	Specialty	Hours	Insurance
1NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital	My first call for anything that can't wait. ER is fast for uptown standards. Not glamorous. Reliable.	Hospital	5141 Broadway	New York, NY 10034	Inwood / Washington Heights border	General medicine, ER, geriatrics	24 hours	Most major plans, Medicare, Medicaid
2NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center	Where I trained. Where I still send the complicated ones. Parking is a SEPARATE diagnosis.	Academic medical center	622 West 168th Street	New York, NY 10032	Washington Heights	Internal medicine, cardiology, oncology	24 hours	Most major plans, Medicare, Medicaid
3Mount Sinai Hospital	Good for second opinions on anything rheum or heme. Far from my patients, worth the trip.	Hospital	1 Gustave L. Levy Place	New York, NY 10029	Upper East Side	Full spectrum tertiary care	24 hours	Most major plans, Medicare, Medicaid
