St. Joseph’s Health Hospital has been, and remains, the backbone of our integrated system, delivering award-winning care and providing enhanced value to our primary, specialized, and urgent care facilities throughout the region. A nationally recognized leader in cardiovascular and orthopedic surgical care, the 451-bed comprehensive medical care institution is advancing the standards of care through innovative technologies and improvement in patient care. The continuum of care extends to our comprehensive primary care services provided across multiple locations which help maximize personal health management and overall well-being.

An integral part of the Syracuse and Central New York community for over 150 years, St. Joseph’s remains committed to providing quality care compassionately to the sick and injured. In 2015, St. Joseph’s formally expanded several pilot partnerships between primary care providers and specialists to offer psychiatric telemedicine services in areas where access to psychiatrists is limited and to better support the provision of primary care services throughout the region – most recently in collaboration with our affiliate Lewis County General Hospital.
