The Montefiore Medical Center Public Relations team loves working with representatives of the news media on every aspect of developing medical coverage. (We really do!) Please call us, night or day, at 718-920-4011 with specific questions or special requests.
Because reporters and producers also ask for general information about Montefiore and its services, programs and experts, we offer several background documents for your use. One is an overview of Monte's mission and the scope of our medical, surgical and social programs. Another recounts Montefiore's award-winning streak of progressive community outreach programs. A third explores our rich history of more than 120 years of medical milestones, and another outlines our therapeutic Centers of Excellence. We also offer you an overview of the scope of services at our new, internationally acclaimed Children's Hospital at Montefiore.

Chairman, Radiation Oncology
Montefiore is establishing new standards in radiation treatment for many cancers. For example, to treat lung cancer we use Image-Guided Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IGRT), which allows unprecedented targeting of a lung tumor without harming surrounding tissue – even when the lungs move as the patient breathes.
