NewYork-Presbyterian announced today a foundational gift of $50 million from the Jane and Daniel Och Family Foundation to expand the Och Spine program across the New York metro area.
Established in 2015, NewYork-Presbyterian Och Spine Hospital in Northern Manhattan brings together orthopedic and neurosurgical spine surgeons and other spine care specialists in one location, using surgical and nonsurgical procedures. Och Spine merges the spine programs of Columbia University Irving Medical Center and Weill Cornell Medicine, giving patients access to leading physicians and specialists from two acclaimed medical schools.
The gift will increase access to spine care by establishing more Och Spine facilities across the New York Metro area, including in underserved communities. Non-operative services and care are also a significant focus for the development of the program, which will now include a state-of-the art outpatient center in The Spiral, a newly constructed, 65-story office tower in Manhattan’s Hudson Yards district.
