Located within Tisch Hospital, the advanced technology and spacious design of the 22,000-square-foot Perelman Emergency Center allows us to treat patients quickly and efficiently.

Among the facility’s features are:

  • 40 emergency care spaces
  • rapid imaging services, including X-ray and CT scanning
  • space for family members at the bedside
  • rooms designed to ensure patient privacy and enhance infection control
