Auburn Community Hospital

Auburn Community Hospital is a not-for-profit, 99-bed acute care facility located in Auburn, NY.

Founded in 1878 by a group of community-minded individuals who recognized the growing health care needs of Auburn and Cayuga County, the original 13-bed hospital was called Auburn City Hospital, located at the current site on Lansing Street. ACH is the sole provider of acute and general hospital services in Cayuga County and the surrounding areas, located in the Finger Lakes region of Central New York. Our mission is to provide compassionate quality care to our community. Over 95% of the physicians on staff are board certified in at least one specialty.

We’re proud to welcome Suhayb Kadura, MD, to the Auburn Heart & Vascular Institute at Auburn Community Hospital as we continue to expand access to high-acuity heart care for our region.

He is recognized as one of New York State’s highest-volume physicians in acute heart attack care, bringing a level of expertise often concentrated in larger medical centers to the communities that need it most.

With the opening of our new cardiac catheterization lab, ACH is strengthening its ability to provide timely, advanced cardiac care close to home—reducing the need for patients to travel long distances when every minute matters.

As a partner of the American Red Cross, Auburn Community Hospital is sharing an urgent update: the national blood supply has dropped nearly 35% in the past month, as hospital needs continue to outpace donations. Winter storms and flu season are contributing to the shortage.

Blood donations help ensure patients can receive the care they need. Schedule an appointment to donate:

Led by Dr. Jay Varanasi and the Auburn Heart & Vascular Institute team, this new service enables patients experiencing heart attacks and other cardiac emergencies to receive immediate diagnosis and treatment locally at ACH.

With winter sports in full swing, keeping student-athletes safe remains a top priority. Through the partnership between Auburn Orthopedic Specialists (AOS) and the Auburn Concussion Clinic, athletic trainers provide on-site sports medicine coverage and baseline concussion testing for Auburn student-athletes.

Using ImPACT® baseline testing, athletes complete a computerized assessment that measures memory, reaction time, and processing speed. In the event of a head injury during winter or fall sports, post-injury results can be compared to baseline scores to support accurate evaluation, guide recovery, and help determine when it is safe to return to play. These results are used alongside clinical assessments, symptom reports, balance testing, and vision screening for a comprehensive approach to concussion care.

And when injuries happen on or off the field, AOS offers a walk-in Orthopedic Urgent Care and access to multiple physicians who specialize in sports medicine.

We’re proud to support the health, safety, and long-term well-being of our local athletes throughout every season.

Updated Masking Guidance at Auburn Community Hospital:

Due to increased levels of influenza, RSV, and COVID-19 in our community, we have implemented updated masking guidance to help protect patients, visitors, and staff.

Masks are required for all employees, physicians, students, volunteers, vendors, and contract workers in all areas of the hospital and all ACH, AMMS and FLCL locations. Masking is strongly encouraged for patients and visitors, and masks are available throughout hospital and outpatient areas.

These measures help reduce the spread of respiratory illness and protect our most vulnerable patients. Thank you for your cooperation and continued commitment to keeping our community safe.
