Physician Practice Center

Mount Sinai’s physicians see patients in a multi-specialty group practice with more than 900 world-class physicians and surgeons, offering services ranging from primary care to sophisticated disease management and complex surgeries.

To create a space that enables our physicians, nurses, and administrative staff to provide tomorrow’s medicine today, Mount Sinai is constructing a state-of-the-art Physician Practice Center on the lower levels of the new residential tower, currently being built adjacent to the Hess Center for Science and Medicine.

29

Physician Practice Center On 102nd street, Mount Sinai is erecting a striking new 43-story tower, which will offer luxury residential units for sale and lease on its upper floors. Mount Sinai’s robust physician practice will also relocate into the 1st, 4th, and 5th floors of this new building in a state-of-the-art, 43,000square-foot office and patient care annex, the Physician Practice Center.

Physicians practicing at Mount Sinai have three distinct but related missions: promoting education, providing clinical service, and conducting research. These talented doctors carry out much of their clinical mission at the Faculty Practice Associates (FPA), a multispecialty group practice offering services ranging from primary care to the most advanced approaches to disease management available today.

The Physician Practice Center’s street entrance on 102nd Street will offer maximum visibility for the bustling space, which will also be linked to the Hess Center for Science and Medicine building’s clinical floors.
