Jason C. Hoffmann, MD

I grew up in a family of teachers and educators, and have a genuine passion for learning and teaching, a commitment to my community, and a desire to help people. I value the role that physicians play as teachers, whether to our patients, medical students, or colleagues. I decided to specialize in interventional radiology because it allows me to provide longitudinal care and procedural management to patients with a wide array of medical problems utilizing minimally invasive, image guided interventions.

I work with patients to diagnose and treat complex conditions and provide care as a member of a multidisciplinary healthcare team. I perform percutaneous, image-guided, minimally invasive procedures and specialize in kidney and liver tumor ablation, liver tumor embolization, inferior vena cava filter placement and removal, and embolization of noncancerous conditions (including benign prostatic hyperplasia, uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, varicoceles, pelvic congestion syndrome, and angiomyolipomas).

Each person is unique, which is why I provide individualized treatments that suit each one’s needs. I work with patients to make sure they have a solid understanding of their disease. Providing the appropriate information allows patients to make optimal decisions and feel empowered and engaged in their care.

I am proud to have been twice awarded the Department of Radiology Attending of the Year by the diagnostic radiology residents. As the director of the diagnostic radiology residency training program, I am committed to serving as a role model and fostering valuable clinical interactions. I am honored to also have been selected to received numerous awards from our medical students, including Excellence in Mentorship, Humanism in Medicine, and Excellence in Teaching. In 2024, I was awarded the NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine Distinguished Educator Award, which is the highest award given at the institution for sustained excellence and achievements in education.

I conduct research on improving patient outcomes relating to a variety of conditions and have presented findings at many major national and international diagnostic radiology and interventional radiology society meetings. I am actively involved in several medical societies, including the Society of Interventional Radiology, the American College of Radiology, and the Association of Academic Radiology. Due to my accomplishments within the field of interventional radiology in the clinical, education, and research arenas, I was awarded Fellowship status by the Society of Interventional Radiology in 2020. This is an honor bestowed upon less than 10 percent of interventional radiologists).
