Cross County Cardiology-Mount Sinai Doctors will work to enhance clinical care for patients with cardiovascular disease bringing the most advanced techniques within the field of cardiology and vascular care to the region.
“Cross County Cardiology is extremely honored to partner with Mount Sinai and the world-class team of cardiologists led by renowned heart specialist Valentin Fuster, MD, PhD, Director of Mount Sinai Heart and Physician-in-Chief of The Mount Sinai Hospital and to offer our patients access to advancements in practice, diagnostics and treatment and other specialty care within the Mount Sinai Health System,” said Rick Pumill, MD, Director of Cross County Cardiology-Mount Sinai Doctors.
Ranked 6th nationally for Cardiology & Heart Surgery by U.S. News & World Report, Mount Sinai Heart at The Mount Sinai Hospital, is celebrated internationally as a world leader in all facets of cardiology care, cardiac surgery, and advanced research.

The practices are located at 20 Prospect Ave Suite 909, Hackensack; 38 Meadowlands Parkway, Secaucus; 103 River Road, 2nd floor, Edgewater; 7322 Bergenline Avenue, North Bergen; and 92 Summit Ave, Hackensack.

“Mount Sinai Health Network is excited to collaborate with Cross County Cardiology and to welcome this talented team of cardiac specialists in the New Jersey region into Mount Sinai’s growing network of hospitals, clinical practices, and polyclinics,” said Arthur Klein, MD, President of the Mount Sinai Health Network. “Patients seen in the practice will receive the highest standard of personalized cardiac care by highly trained doctors and staff who employ the latest medical protocols and innovative research to save lives.”
“Over the years, patients have become our best referral source and they have helped us to advance and grow our practice,” added Pumill. “We take pride in knowing that each and every patient encounter is a worthwhile experience and that all of our patients feel comfortable with their diagnosis and treatment plan. Patient care and safety is our number one concern.”
