Icahn SOM at Mount Sinai

hands-on

18-19Rotator in 2018/19 described a chill, down-to-earth resident group, strong subspecialty exposure across spine, sports, joints, and hand, early operative training, and Level 1 trauma autonomy. Concerns were noted about the merger and a temporary PA staffing loss that strained junior call before overnight PA coverage was added back.
17-18Details withheld for this cycle.
16-17Rotator in 2016/17 described a lifestyle-friendly academic program with a new chair, ample PA support, protected didactics, and a unique resident-run clinic. A pending merger with St. Luke's introduced uncertainty around class size, faculty mix, and rotation structure. Trauma at Elmhurst was lighter than at other NYC county hospitals.

Mount Sinai

mixed hands-on

23-24Three rotators in 2023/24 described mixed impressions. Some noted demanding junior call across spread-out sites and limited rotator EMR access; others described solid operative experience and chill residents. Rotators reported variable operative autonomy and PA dynamics.
21-22Rotator in 2021/22 described welcoming residents and faculty, strong elective fellowship placement, good PA coverage allowing OR time, home call at the main site without post-call days, and travel between multiple NYC sites.
20-21Rotator in 2020/21 described extensive PA coverage freeing residents from floor work, early intern exposure to consults, multi-site rotations including a Queens trauma center, structured research groups, and strong quality of life among NYC programs.
19-20Two rotators in 2019/20 described high autonomy for seniors, strong PA and NP support, daily morning lectures, and tight-knit resident culture. Rotators noted low peds volume at the main site, trauma handled at Westchester, and variable rotator interview invites.
18-19Rotator in 2018/19 described a program recently merged with St. Luke's/Roosevelt, rotations across multiple Manhattan sites, strong joints and hand experience, in-house trauma call at affiliate county hospitals, and minimal double-scrubbing.

Paraphrased from rotator survey responses. Names and identifying details removed.
