What are the responsibilities and job description for the OB/GYN Attending position at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center?
Jamaica Hospital Medical Center (JHMC) is a 400 bed, not-for-profit teaching hospital; a major healthcare facility located in Queens, NY, seeking F / T Board-Certified OB / GYN to provide consultative and patient care services.
JHMC is a well-established, safety-net hospital that first formally opened in 1891 and is recognized by Healthgrades as one of America’s 100 top hospitals. It serves a diverse population with a strong emphasis on community outreach, engagement, and providing culturally sensitive care to the underserved in a welcoming environment. Many of the patients seen at JHMC face challenges rooted in the social determinants of health; many are non-English speaking and / or recent immigrants.
In January 2023, JHMC / MediSys Health Network and MSKCC announced a new collaboration to enhance cancer care in Queens. It is envisioned that MSKCC will assist JHMC in building its own oncology program and related staffing through strategic recruitment and leveraging JMHC’s many strengths, so it can address most of the oncologic care across the multidisciplinary cancer care continuum for the community it serves, while providing patients access to specialty care, services, and clinical trials not available at JHMC. Recent changes to New York State’s policies will enable patients insured by Medicaid plans to obtain specialized oncology care including at MSKCC.
