Signature Healthcare and New England Sinai Hospital in Stoughton are pleased to announce the formation of a clinical affiliation, increasing the spectrum of services offered by each organization.

The affiliation will bring the clinical expertise of Signature Healthcare in areas such as primary and specialty care to New England Sinai, which delivers leading edge pulmonary, complex medical and acute rehabilitation care.  During the first phase of the affiliation, general and vascular surgeons from Signature Healthcare will collaborate with New England Sinai staff to provide the continuum of care needed for surgery and post-surgical wound care. 

“This affiliation combines the expertise of two recognized leaders in patient care,” said Norman B. Goodman, President of Signature Healthcare. “New England Sinai Hospital and Signature Healthcare both recognized the synergies between the services we provide and came together to build this affiliation and keep our patients local throughout their medical, surgical, and post acute care.”

 “New England Sinai is pleased that we are able to enhance our affiliation with Signature Healthcare,” said Lester P. Schindel, President and CEO of New England Sinai Hospital.  “This new venture will continue the long history of collaboration between the two organizations in meeting the needs of our patients and families by providing compassionate, quality care.”
