Welcome to the NYP Physician Emergency Medicine Residency Program! Our comprehensive curriculum develops exceptional educators and master clinicians. Our residents graduate into fellowship programs, grow into academic powerhouses, and excel in the community. Most of all, we pride ourselves in creating family and friendship. The people are what make NYP the truly special place it is to train. We care for and support our patients; we promote an environment of learning and wellness; and we never miss an opportunity to have fun together! We would love for you to join our family.

FAQs

Where do residents live?

Residents live all over the city because NYC has such great public transportation.  In addition, there is hospital housing available for residents near both campuses at a subsidized rate. Information is available from NewYork-Presbyterian Real Estate. 

Will I be able to go to national conferences?

Yes, we send all the PGY-2s to SAEM annually. In addition, if you are presenting at a conference, the residency helps fund your expenses.

In-Service Board Review Program

The emergency medicine board review program utilizes an adult learning model combined with a comprehensive didactic program. The residency has purchased electronic board review materials for every resident and has created thoughtful board review sessions to prepare learners for the American Board of Emergency Medicine oral and written examinations.

Grand Rounds and Didactics

In addition to world-renowned EM Grand Rounds speakers, didactics are divided into innovative “Theme” and “Core” days. We design the educational experience using a variety of teaching modalities such as interactive small group sessions, simulation cases, procedure skill sessions, short lectures, etc. We have Morning Report at each campus every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and once monthly Journal Club.
