mixed hands-on
  • 21-22Rotator in 2021/22 described a resident- and student-centric culture with strong mentorship, integrated operative exposure as a sub-internship, robust research emphasis, and consistent top fellowship placement. Trauma experience was augmented by away time at Shock Trauma in Maryland.
  • 19-20Rotator in 2019/20 described a demanding sub-internship averaging around 80 hours a week, with call shifts split among rotators and post-call days off. Faculty expected strong engagement and pimping was used as a teaching tool. Rotators presented at fracture conference and end-of-week case presentations.
  • 18-19Rotator in 2018/19 described 5-8 sub-internships at a time on a single service for the month, friendly engaged residents, and strong peds, sports, and upper extremity exposure.

mixed hands-on

mixed hands-on
  • 18-19Two rotators in 2018/19 described mixed impressions. Reports noted didactics on MWF and Thursdays, significant fellow presence across services, a resident-run low-income clinic, and substantial PGY4 research time. Rotators split on operative autonomy and resident camaraderie, with some reporting double and triple scrubbing while others reported strong teaching engagement.
  • 17-18Rotator in 2017/18 described down-to-earth residents, engaged leadership, and name-brand faculty, with trauma training done off-site and high cost of living in NYC.
  • 15-16Rotator in 2015/16 described an engaged leadership team, most specialties in house, active faculty expansion to address operative volume concerns, and external trauma rotations at Shock Trauma and for spine.
