Due to an unexpected PGY-2 departure, there is an immediately available position for a PGY-3 starting July 1, 2008 at Mount Sinai in New York. We would prefer an incoming PGY-3, however will consider an incoming PGY-2.
The Orthopaedic residency education takes place at The Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan and Elmhurst Hospital Center in Queens. The Leni and Peter W. May Department of Orthopaedics is composed of 12 full-time clinical faculty, two full-time Ph.D. basic scientists, and eighteen voluntary orthopaedic surgeons at The Mount Sinai Medical Center. Elmhurst Hospital Center has five full-time orthopaedic faculty who are also members of our department at Mount Sinai. The experience at The Mount Sinai Hospital is primarily elective orthopaedics. The elective cases include all the common orthopaedic conditions and operations, as well as the most sophisticated tertiary orthopaedic care. The emergency room at The Mount Sinai Hospital is busy, but the orthopaedic emergencies are low-energy injuries, including a great number of hip fractures. The experience at Elmhurst Hospital Center is primarily trauma, including multi-system trauma. Elmhurst Hospital Center is a Level I Trauma Center.
