  • (January 16, 2024)

Mount Sinai Health System today announced the opening of Mount Sinai Queens-Crescent Street, a new outpatient practice offering multispecialty care in a convenient state-of-the-art facility. Located across the street from Mount Sinai Queens at 30-14 Crescent Street in Astoria, this new location will enhance health care accessibility for residents of western Queens, integrating a wide range of outpatient primary and specialty practices under one roof to deliver coordinated care to patients.

Mount Sinai Queens-Crescent Street, structured across three floors, offers the latest diagnostic and treatment options and specialized care. Services include heart care from the world-renowned Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital on the second floor and centers for hematology/oncology, gastroenterology, endocrinology/diabetes care, rheumatology, and physical medicine and rehabilitation (physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology) on the third floor. Within the next year, a Mount Sinai retail pharmacy and Mount Sinai Express Care—an urgent care clinic associated with the hospital’s emergency room—will also open on the first floor of the building.

This consolidation will not only streamline health care services, but also create an immersive and comprehensive experience for patients and clinical experts across cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, hematology and oncology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, and rheumatology.

The addition of the new Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital space further enhances cardiac care options available at Mount Sinai Queens. The hospital boasts modern technologies that provide cutting-edge care, including a new cardiac CT scanner and cardiac nuclear camera, which were generously donated to the hospital. With these improvements and the recent opening of the first cardiac catheterization lab in Astoria, Mount Sinai is transforming cardiac treatment for the Western Queens area.

"The opening of Mount Sinai Queens-Crescent Street marks a transformative milestone in our ability to provide a wide range of health care services for the Queens community," said Cameron R. Hernandez, MD, Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer, Mount Sinai Queens. “This new facility will help redefine health care accessibility, ensuring that every individual receives comprehensive and tailored care that transcends conventional boundaries. With the integration of these services under one roof, we’re creating a continuum of care, from preventive measures to managing complex medical conditions. We’re thrilled to expand our outpatient services in Queens, and look forward to continuing our pursuit of providing innovative, compassionate, and patient-centered health care that truly makes a difference in the lives of those we serve."

Mount Sinai Queens-Crescent Street will serve as a convenient location for residents across the Astoria, Long Island City, Ditmars-Steinway, Sunnyside, Woodside, Ridgewood, Williamsburg, Greenpoint, and Roosevelt Island communities to access the high-quality, innovative, and compassionate care for which the Mount Sinai Health System is known.
