Vice Chairperson, OB/GYN - Jacobi Medical Center & North Central Bronx Hospital

The Vice Chair supports the Chairperson to achieve the vision for the Department. The Department of OBGYN is a unified Department across two campuses, *Jacobi Medical Center* and *North Central Bronx Hospital*.

Both facilities are members of *NYC Health + Hospitals*, the largest public health system in the country, and serve the diverse community in the surrounding neighborhoods of the Bronx and lower Westchester County.

Jacobi Medical Center and North Central Bronx Hospital (NCB) are major clinical affiliates and teaching sites of the *Albert Einstein College of Medicine* and have recently developed a teaching relationship with *City University of New York*.

Jacobi is a 457-bed tertiary referral center with a Level III NICU. NCB is a 232-bed community hospital with a loyal patient following.

The faculty represent all specialties within OBGYN including Maternal Fetal Medicine, Genetics, Gynecologic Oncology, Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery, Urogynecology, and Reproductive Endocrinology.

The Department focuses on delivering the highest quality care to our patients. We employ multidisciplinary simulation, huddling, and debriefs to promote teamwork and standard care to continually improve our processes.
