About Us

World-class artists deserve world-class care. The Weill Cornell Medicine Center for Performing Artist provides unparalleled, comprehensive care for professional and student artists from around the world.

Our approach is highly unique because we focus on each artist individually. As our patient, you receive a dedicated care coordinator who will help you find the right specialist and assist with scheduling and referrals — all free of charge.

We understand that performing artists are particularly vulnerable to ailments and injuries, due to the unique, physical demands of their professions. Our Center helps artists achieve the health and wellbeing needed to excel in their artistic pursuits.

Why Choose the Weill Cornell Medicine Center for the Performing Artist? 

Multidisciplinary care from leading experts: The multidisciplinary team at Weill Cornell Medicine provides a collaborative approach to treating each artist’s unique condition. When you choose Weill Cornell Medicine, you have access to a network of doctors and specialists for seamless and comprehensive care. Learn more about our Executive Committee members.

Weill Cornell Medicine partners with NewYork-Presbyterian, one of the top hospital systems in New York City and the U.S.

Comprehensive care founded on cutting-edge research: All patient care is based on the latest research and knowledge — including research being conducted by our own physicians.

Weill Cornell Medicine, through the Center for the Performing Artist, is an official specialty provider for the Metropolitan Opera, Battery Park Dance and the Local 802 Musicians Union. We also provide care for cast and crew members of the area’s theater, television and film community, as well as students enrolled at The Juilliard School, the Manhattan School of Music and Marymount College and their alumni.

Conditions We Treat

Our team collaborates with other specialists at Weill Cornell Medicine to treat physical and emotional conditions that may be disrupting your artistic practice. Artists come to us for treatment for voice disorders, physical symptoms, physical injuries, neurological disorders, anxiety and other conditions.
