X-Rays
The emergency physician provides an on-the-spot interpretation of x-rays. If you had an x-ray taken, the radiologist will also review these tests. If a change in your diagnosis or treatment is needed, we will contact you. It is critical that we have a current phone number for you. Pick up your x-rays in radiology before your follow-up appointment. Please inform radiology in advance by calling 212-434-2935.
Private Physician
For the name of a private physician or dentist call the Lenox Hill Hospital physician referral service at 1-888-RIGHT-MD (744-4863). Each weekday, from 9 am to 4:30 pm, a counselor can help you find a physician for your follow up care, a second opinion, or general medical attention for your family.
