Scott Hopkins, MD

As a family medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive care that emphasizes proactive healthcare engagement. I strive to ensure my patients in the hospital are well-informed and actively involved in their health and wellness journey. Fostering strong partnerships with my patients is essential to creating a supportive and responsive healthcare environment.

I specialize in managing patients in the hospital with a wide range of chronic conditions, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and mental health disorders. My extensive training and experience in family medicine allow me to address the diverse needs of my patients, offering personalized treatment plans that promote long-term health and wellbeing. Additionally, I am certified in advanced cardiac life support, pediatric advanced life support, neonatal resuscitation, and advanced trauma life support, which enhances my ability to provide comprehensive care in various medical situations.

Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience working in different healthcare settings, including as a hospitalist at Peconic Bay Medical Center, an urgent care physician at CityMD, and a physician at Mountain Lakes Medical Center. My background also includes working as a chiropractor, where I collaborated with other healthcare professionals to deliver holistic patient care. These diverse experiences have equipped me with unique skills and methodologies that I bring to my practice, ensuring that my patients receive the highest quality of care.

My journey into medicine began with a strong desire to make a positive impact on people's lives. I earned my doctor of medicine degree from Ross University School of Medicine and my doctor of chiropractic degree from Life University School of Chiropractic. I completed my family medicine residency at Northwell Health/Hofstra School of Medicine and Robert Wood Johnson/University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.

My commitment to patient care is further demonstrated through my involvement in volunteer work, global sepsis initiatives, and leadership roles in family medicine associations. These experiences have shaped my dedication to providing compassionate and effective care to my patients.
