About AMC

Welcome to amcCares.org, your opportunity to get to know us here at Adirondack Medical Center and find out how we can help you stay healthy.

Who We Are
Adirondack Medical Center was born in January 1991 with the consolidation of the General Hospital of Saranac Lake and Placid Memorial Hospital in Lake Placid. Since then we've been serving residents and visitors to the Tri-Lakes region with two hospital sites, three rehabilitation clinics and four primary health clinics.

We have 97 beds at AMC/Saranac Lake, where we offer a broad range of inpatient and outpatient medical and surgical services. Our medical staff of 50 doctors, 94 percent of whom are board-certified, represents 19 specialties. We also have a consulting and courtesy staff which allows us to offer you medical expertise close to home, without traveling to Burlington or Albany.

That's our mission here at AMC, to provide you with "Excellent Health Care Close to Home."

We welcome your questions and comments. Call us at (518) 897-2320 or e-mail us and we'll be happy to help you.
