New York City-based NYU Langone Health is adding two physician practices in Palm Beach County, Fla., as the system builds a larger ambulatory care campus in West Palm Beach.
NYU Langone Medical Associates—Palm Beach Gardens opened earlier this month, according to a July 15 health system news release. The practice offers internal medicine, cardiology, rheumatology, orthopedics, gynecology and gastroenterology. Three physicians are joining the location: Madina Ray, MD, relocating from NYU Langone Hospital—Brooklyn to provide rheumatologic services; Sterling McClain, DO, for gynecologic services; and Rami Elkhechen, MD, who is moving his existing South Florida sports orthopedic practice to the new site.
A second location, NYU Langone Medical Associates—Boynton Beach, will open in September, offering internal medicine, urology and gynecology.
“With each new location, we are making it easier for patients across Palm Beach County to access the comprehensive, coordinated care they need close to home,” Oren Cahlon, MD, executive vice president, vice dean for clinical affairs and strategy, and chief clinical officer at NYU Langone, said in the release.
Both practices set the stage for the planned Julia Koch Family Ambulatory Care Center in West Palm Beach, which is expected to open this winter. The news comes as the system is targeting growth on multiple fronts, including plans for an academic medical center in Melville, N.Y., on Long Island.
NYU Langone operates seven inpatient locations and more than 330 outpatient sites across New York and Florida.
