Docs.jpgAt Richmond University Medical Center, we serve our community with high quality inpatient and outpatient services. Internationally recognized specialists direct our reproductive medicine center, and we operate a high-risk pregnancy center for women requiring special care. In addition, our Level III perinatal center includes a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit boasting one of the highest survival rates in the city.

In addition, our Emergency Department is a Level I Trauma Center, led by board certified emergency department physicians. Our hospital has 510 acute care beds and is a New York State designated Stroke Center. Additionally, we boast a Center for Diabetes Medicine, a Sleep Disorders Center, a Wound Care Center, a Pain Management Center and more. Our physicians include leaders in vascular surgery, pediatric gastroenterology, opthalmology, urology, oncology and cardiology.

Recently, the hospital has partnered with Mount Sinai Medical Center to bring the World Trade Center Medical Monitoring and Treatment Program Clinical Center to the Island, just across the street from the hospital. We are proud to be able to bring this program close to home for Staten Island 9/11 responders.

We look forward to serving your health needs.


Rene Chalom, M.D. appointed Director of Pediatric Intensive Care Services at RUMC Minimize

Richmond University Medical Center is proud to welcome Rene Chalom, M.D., as Director of Pediatric Intensive Care Services at the hospital.

Dr. Chalom joins RUMC with a wealth of experience in pediatric critical care. A graduate of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ), Dr. Chalom completed an internship and residency in pediatrics at the Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center and a Fellowship in Pediatric Critical Care Medicine at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. He is a member of the American Medical Association, the Society of Critical Care Medicine and the American Academy of Pediatrics and has published many papers. He is Board Certified in Pediatrics and Pediatric Critical Care Medicine and has been awarded several honors for his excellence in pediatrics.

Most recently a Visiting Pediatric Intensivist at Children’s Hospital of Illinois, Dr. Chalom was also Director of PICU at The Valley Hospital, Ridgewood, NJ in the past.

Dr. Chalom looks forward to contributing to the already-successful teaching program at RUMC and to providing care for infants and children who may warrant critical care services. “Having a pediatric intensivist on duty full time provides a level of comfort for the sicker patients in the hospital and to the community. I look forward to working with Staten Island physicians and the RUMC team of nurses to provide optimal care for children with critical injuries and disease on Staten Island,” he said.

The pediatric program at RUMC includes specialists in gastroenterology, neurology, endocrinology, oncology, infectious disease, obesity and more. Additionally, our award-winning Neonatal Intensive Care Unit takes extra special care of premature babies and sick infants.
