EMU Health Queens announces new affiliation with internationally acclaimed Rothman Orthopaedic Institute

EMU Health, a multi-specialty outpatient medical facility in the Glendale section of Queens, NY, has partnered with Rothman Orthopaedic Institute, a global leader in the treatment of musculoskeletal issues. This new affiliation is the latest step by EMU Health in pursuing its stated goal to continue to elevate the level of health care available to the previously underserved Queens community.

“Rothman Orthopaedic specialists will now be seeing patients at EMU Health in Queens,” explained Daniel Lowy, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of EMU Health. “This move will bring further high-level quality care to patients and their families in our greater Queens area.”

“We are really excited about the continued growth of Rothman Orthopaedic Institute in the New York City market,” said Alexander R.

Rothman Professor and Chairman of the Department of Orthopaedics, and Professor of Neurosurgery at Thomas Jefferson University and Hospitals. “Partnering with EMU Health will provide patients in this region access to some of the best orthopaedic providers in the world, and we look forward to bringing the best musculoskeletal care to the Queens community.”

This affiliation with Rothman Orthopaedics represents the latest initiative by EMU Health to continue growing its world-class medical and patient care offerings in Queens, through recruitment of eminent physicians as well as broader collaborations with other leading medical organizations and entities.

“Our vision at EMU Health is to provide all residents of the various communities in Queens with the highest quality medical and surgical services,” said Efrat Yaish, Chief Clinical Executive and Principal at EMU Health. Yaish noted that this new affiliation with Rothman Orthopaedics is another significant step in pursuing that vision as well as enables EMU Health to further expand its resources and services in the realm of musculoskeletal subspecialties, consultations, diagnostics, treatments, and surgeries.

“Making a positive difference in the community has been a key imperative in the founding and growth of EMU Health,” Lowy added, “and we’re proud to feel that our Glendale home is not only bringing an expanding set of world-class medical care to Queens families, but is emerging as a leading medical treatment destination across the entire NYC Metro area.”
