Children’s Hospital at Montefiore
For over 20 years, Children’s Hospital at Montefiore (CHAM) has been a premier academic children’s hospital, nationally renowned for its clinical excellence, innovative research and outstanding outcomes. CHAM is the only hospital in the Bronx exclusively dedicated to meeting the healthcare needs of children, treating nearly 200,000 patients in its emergency department, outpatient clinics and health clinics each year.  

Since opening in 2001, CHAM’s goal has been to provide children with the best opportunity to lead active and healthy lives and realize their full potential. To achieve this, CHAM has recruited some of the world’s leading pediatric specialists and child health investigators and implemented the latest medical technologies to deliver the highest quality and safest healthcare with compassion and sensitivity to the needs of the children, families, and communities it serves.

CHAM is nationally recognized for its cutting-edge research and care, from innovating new ways to treat children with life-threatening illnesses, to distinguishing how kids’ immune systems react differently from adults with COVID-19. As the Pediatric Hospital for the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, ground-breaking discoveries by CHAM investigators have led to new therapies, safer processes, new models of care and better outcomes for children cared for at CHAM and throughout the world. 

Since 2001, clinician-scientists at CHAM and Albert Einstein College of Medicine have secured approximately $400M in research funding, including more than $150M from the National Institutes of Health, and enrolled children in hundreds of clinical trials.
CHAM is recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of the best children’s hospitals in multiple pediatric subspecialties, including Gastroenterology & GI Surgery, Nephrology, and Cancer.
