“Accompanying Dr. Nguyen on the trip was David H. Adams,
MD, the Marie-Josée and Henry R. Kravis Professor and Chairman of the Department of
Cardiothoracic Surgery. After obtaining a list of patients from local hospitals near Hue, Drs. Nguyen and Adams rolled up their sleeves and went to work with a clinical team that included anesthesiologists, echocardiographers, intensivists, perfusionists, and nurses from Mount Sinai and other hospitals around the United States. “It was particularly meaningful to be there working with Dr. Nguyen, who has already brought so much back to the very hospital where he was born,” notes Dr. Adams.”

243 Mount Sinai physicians land on
New York magazine’s “Best Doctors” list
Mount Sinai was distinguished in many ways in New York magazine’s “Best Doctors 2007” issue. Our doctors composed almost one-fifth of the total list, and there was at least one Mount Sinai doctor represented in nearly every specialty reviewed. Areas in which Mount Sinai was particularly well-represented include gastroenterology, cardiovascular disease, surgery, urology, thoracic surgery, pediatrics, and occupational medicine. The magazine’s list is drawn from a third-party survey of 12,000 medical professionals in the tri-state area.

Bernadine Healy, M.D., on Mitral Valves: Repair or Replace?
“Missing out. The actual number getting repair is closer to 50 percent, and that's unacceptable, says David Adams, head of heart surgery at the Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York. "Too many miss out on optimal surgical treatment," he says. But this is fixable. Surgeons who offer patients only valve replacement because that's what they do well must think again. So must cardiologists reluctant to refer patients elsewhere for care. And insurance providers, who make doctors and patients jump through hoops for treatments outside of their networks, can't fight clear-cut practice guidelines.”
