undeNYable COURAGE | Dr. Christopher Ahmad Fighting Coronavirus in New York

Dr. Christopher Ahmad is an orthopedic surgeon and Chief of Sports Medicine at NewYork­Presbyterian/Columbla University Irving Medical Center and the Head Team Physician and Chief Medical Officer for New York City Football Club. Five months ago, Dr. Ahmad's typical day in the office would be spent taking care of injured athletes to help get them back to their sport, but as COVID-19 began to severely impact New York City, including his own family, he quickly ended up on the front lines of the pandemic. As New York City became the epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic, NewYork-Presbyterian hospitals began caring for a large number of COVID-19 patients. At NewYork­ Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center, elective orthopedic care was shut down and the operating rooms that Dr. Ahmad would usually perform surgeries in were converted to take care of COVIO-19 patients who needed ventilator support. "My care that I give to patients who have elbow injuries or knee injuries were put on hold because they were not essential to the care of patients who were requiring treatments that would keep them alive." He continued, "Our hospital instantly pivoted into a hospital that could take care of large volumes of COVID patients. That meant every aspect of the hospital was converted or modified." -- New Yorkers rising up together to meet unprecedented challenges is in the fabric of this great city. Through the COVID-19 crisis, we've seen countless examples of the community-minded selflessness and resilience associated with New York City and we've been inspired by those who have raised a hand and stepped up to help their fellow citizens. In this spirit, we are setting out to reflect what's truly undeNYable about our city and the people who make up our extended NYCFC family, all doing whatever it takes today to be back together again tomorrow through the sport we love. ► Click HERE to subscribe for FREE and never miss another NYCFC video! http://bit.ly/2h4vJyD ► Click HERE to visit our website for all team news, tickets, and more: https://www.nycfc.com ►FOLLOW NYCFC!
