Affiliations may change. Please call our office to confirm current privileges.
What Hospital Affiliations Mean for Patients
A hospital affiliation means your physician has been credentialed and granted privileges to admit and treat patients at a particular hospital. This process involves a thorough review of training, experience, and clinical standards — providing an additional layer of quality assurance for patients.
For most hand, wrist, and upper extremity conditions, treatment takes place in our Fort Lee or Bayside offices. However, certain complex procedures — or patients with underlying health conditions — may benefit from a hospital setting where additional monitoring, anesthesia support, or inpatient care is available.
Continuity of care
Seamless communication between our office and hospital teams throughout your treatment.
Coordinated records and imaging
Medical records, X-rays, and MRIs shared securely between facilities.
Hospital credentialing standards
Privileges are granted after thorough review of clinical qualifications.
Referral pathways
Smooth referrals if hospital-based services such as advanced imaging or inpatient care are needed.
Access to surgical facilities
Operating rooms equipped for complex orthopedic procedures when an outpatient setting is not sufficient.
Insurance coordination
Our team helps verify hospital-specific insurance coverage before any scheduled procedure.
Coordinated Orthopedic Care
OrthoMD provides orthopedic care for hand, wrist, elbow, and upper extremity conditions across northern New Jersey and the New York City metro area. Our hospital affiliations with Holy Name Medical Center in Teaneck, NJ and Mount Sinai Queens in Long Island City, NY allow us to extend care beyond the office when clinically appropriate.
Whether your treatment involves a straightforward office visit, an outpatient procedure, or a more complex surgery requiring a hospital setting, our goal is to provide clear communication and continuity at every step. If you are experiencing symptoms such as carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger finger, De Quervain's tenosynovitis, or tennis elbow, we encourage you to schedule an appointment for a thorough evaluation.
