Thank you for visiting the North America Division page which outlines our services for patients from the United States, Canada and Bermuda.
The moment you arrive at Johns Hopkins you've become part of a long tradition of outstanding medical care. Our mission is excellence. We strive to lead the world in the diagnosis and treatment of disease and to train tomorrow's great physicians, nurses and scientists. Above all we aim to provide the highest quality health care and services to all our patients.
The foundation of our progress has also been the friendship of those we serve. Patients from North America receive medical care at the Johns Hopkins medical facilities in downtown Baltimore and surrounding region. The role of the North America Division of Johns Hopkins International is to help answer any questions you may have and to facilitate the logistical arrangement of a medical visit to Johns Hopkins. We can schedule all medical appointments with the physician best suited to your particular needs, secure long or short-term accommodations in accordance with your personal preferences, arrange ground transportation and, of course, provide interpretive services.
All you need to do is contact the North America Division and a patient services coordinator will be personally assigned to you to ensure your visit to Johns Hopkins is as comfortable as possible.
A representative from the North America Division can be reached from 8:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. United States Eastern Time. You can contact us via telephone 1-410-614-5275, fax 1-410-502-5227, or e-mail northamerica@jhmi.edu in the language of your choice.

The North America Division has interpreters who are fluent in the major languages of the region they serve. These individuals are also knowledgeable about the medical terminology and procedures you may encounter while at Johns Hopkins.
Baltimore is known for its beautiful waterfront setting and rich ethnic heritage. This historic city has thriving ethnic communities, as well as many restaurants and grocery stores that specialize in international cuisines. Our patient coordinators will gladly help patients enjoy these and other aspects of life in this historic city.
Baltimore-Washington International and Dulles International are the two international airports closest to downtown Baltimore and the Johns Hopkins Medical Campus. Once your appointment has been scheduled, please consult the Guest Services Section of this website for airline, hotel and ground transportation information. Upon request, we can arrange for private car transportation between the airport and your hotel.
