Albert Einstein is a name universally recognized and one that has become synonymous with brilliant science and innovative thinking. He was also a compassionate humanitarian with a deep moral sense who changed the way we looked at each other and ourselves. His concern for mankind is reflected in his philosophical views and social activism.
In 1951, we sought permission to use Albert Einsteins name for the new medical center being formed through the merger of the Jewish, Mount Sinai, and Northern Liberties Hospitals now known as Albert Einstein Medical Center.

It opened its doors as The Jewish Hospital in 1866, with a few thousand dollars in donations, and an inspired idea: to provide medical care to 'the sick and wounded without regard to creed, color or nationality.'
