Department of Pathology Faculty Member Jonathan Melamed Named One of New York’s Best Doctors

Associate Professor of Pathology Jonathan Melamed, M.D., has once again been selected as one of New York's "best doctors" by New York magazine's annual survey. This is Dr. Melamed's fourth consecutive year to be included in the list.

His research work focuses on studies of new markers on human tissue using tissue microarrays and his clinical interests are in the early pathogenesis of prostate cancer and in diagnostic modalities that assist in surgical pathology. Dr. Melamed is among 142 physicians at the NYU Langone Medical Center to be included in the magazine's annual list of the best doctors in New York.
