University Heights Hospital[1][2][3] was a proprietary hospital[4] located in the 18th Electoral District (ED) of The Bronx.[5] This private hospital served its local community for births [6] and deaths[2] but was more limited in-between.[7]

They were included in a study of patient racial composition published in 1984.[8] The hospital closed,[9][10] and the site was repurposed as a store.[11]
