NYU Langone Orthopedic Hospital
NYU Langone Orthopedic Hospital operates on East 17th Street in Manhattan as a dedicated musculoskeletal specialty hospital within NYU Langone Health. Founded in 1905 and known for most of its history as the Hospital for Joint Diseases, it became part of the NYU system and now anchors one of the country's larger orthopedic programs. Unlike a general hospital, its entire clinical footprint centers on bones, joints, muscles, and connective tissue, which shapes everything from surgical volume to the rhythm of nursing work.
Services cover joint replacement and revision surgery, spine surgery, sports medicine, hand and upper extremity surgery, foot and ankle care, orthopedic oncology, pediatric orthopedics, rheumatology, and inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation. High surgical volume in specific procedures gives the hospital the depth that comes with repetition. Nurses work in perioperative and post-anesthesia settings, orthopedic surgical units, and rehabilitation, with a patient population that arrives largely for planned procedures rather than emergencies, so care centers on surgical preparation, pain management, mobility, and discharge planning toward recovery at home. As a teaching site, the hospital trains orthopedic residents and fellows alongside nursing students.
