For over 150 years, St. John’s Riverside Hospital has been a trusted pillar of the Yonkers and Rivertown communities, providing exceptional healthcare to generations of local families. This long-standing history is a testament to our commitment and dedication to the community. But in recent years, the hospital has undergone a remarkable transformation, strategically positioning itself as the region’s premier community healthcare provider.
At the heart of this growth is the hospital’s comprehensive Education Hub, addressing the looming healthcare provider shortage head-on. The hub includes The Cochran School of Nursing, LECOM Medical and Pharmacy School students, and the Internal Medicine and Emergency Medicine Residency Program. By educating and training the next generation of healthcare professionals within the community they will serve, St. John’s is ensuring a steady pipeline of skilled providers to meet the area’s evolving needs. In addition to serving local family, friends, and neighbors, these healthcare providers will allow for more medical expertise at the patients’ bedside.
But the hospital’s commitment to the community doesn’t stop there. The St. John’s Medical Group has expanded to over 40 primary care and specialty providers, strategically selected to address the community’s most pressing health concerns. Whether you require an orthopedist, gastroenterologist, endocrinologist, nephrologist, podiatrist, pulmonologist, interventional pain management specialist, or a geriatric-focused primary care physician, St. John’s has you covered.
St. John’s has also strengthened its partnership with Montefiore Health System, recognizing the importance of seamless, coordinated care. This collaboration provides the community with access to world-renowned surgeons in fields like gastrointestinal, breast care, thoracic, hernia, general, and organ transplant—all conveniently located at St. John’s facilities.
Adapting to the changing healthcare landscape and post-COVID climate, St. John’s has also invested heavily in infrastructure upgrades. The hospital’s Maternity Department and lobbies are currently undergoing renovations. St. John’s has just been awarded a $15 million state grant to redesign and renovate its Emergency Department, doubling the current patient capacity.
“We are here to grow and meet your healthcare needs by strategically building a better future for our community,” said St. John’s Riverside Hospital CEO Ronald J. Corti. “We are here for you, and we are Community Strong.”
As the community’s healthcare needs continue to evolve, St. John’s Riverside Hospital remains steadfast in its commitment to providing exceptional, cutting-edge care. Through strategic investments in education, provider expansion, care coordination, and modern facilities, the hospital is solidifying its position as the go-to healthcare provider for the Yonkers and Rivertown region.
