The Merger

CityMD is based in New York with over 130 locations across New York City, Long Island and New Jersey. CityMD has locations in 10 NJ counties.
Continuity of care is our priority. Even though there will be a larger team of doctors and nurses to better serve our communities, your doctors will remain the same.
You will continue to call Summit Medical Group to schedule your appointments.
Your medical records will remain with Summit Medical Group. In the near future, we will adopt one electronic health record platform for all patients. This will make sharing information between our providers even easier and ensure that regardless of the number of doctors you see, there will be one coordinated chart.
Summit Medical Group patients who visit CityMD should be prepared to share important medical history, list of medications, contact name and address of your primary care doctor and any specialist you may be under the care of, and any other health information you may find important to share at your visit.
Summit Medical Group patients will continue to use their existing patient portal. In the future, Summit Medical Group and CityMD will share a single portal. We will keep you updated about changes.
Your statement looks different because in August 2019, CityMD and Summit Medical Group merged to provide our patients with the high-quality care they already know, across a now wider range of primary, specialty and urgent care services.
