Residency Programs in Internal Medicine

Training Locations

Veterans Administration Medical Center, Bronx

Internal medicine residents rotate through the Bronx VA for ICU and CCU care, as well as general medicine wards. Like Elmhurst and Mount Sinai, the Bronx VA's unique patient population offers a wealth of learning opportunities, and permits considerable resident autonomy under appropriate supervision.

This hospital is renowned for its clinical research and has many well-respected scientists on its faculty including the Nobel Laureate, Dr. Rosalyn Yalow. Dr. Yalow developed the radioimmunoassay along with Solomon Berson, former Chairman of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

The Bronx VA is another component of our training program that ensures a diverse patient population is available for the residency experience. The VA Hospital is a relatively new facility with major research laboratories and a new MICU/CCU and a large new dialysis ward. The VA is a "paperless," completely computerized hospital.
