From Our Senior Vice President

The Residency Programs at Harlem Hospital Center have many strengths. Perhaps our most important strengths are the commitment of the faculty to graduate medical education, the collegiality and camaraderie between the faculty and residents, the opportunities to do research in a public health setting, and of course, the world-class attractions of New York City. Harlem Hospital Center has a successful tradition of training dentists, physicians, and surgeons. Our programs have remained competitive, meeting both the needs of our patients and the educational requirements of our Residents. The long line of scholars with whom we have shared the art and science of healing have well-respected practices across this country and throughout the world.

Please note there is another separate Internal Medicine program listed in with the ACGME that has Jacobi Medical Center as the sponsoring institution. That program code is 3172140C4 and is at North Central Bronx hospital (NCB) and NOT at Jacobi. The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai offers a variety of fellowships and residencies. Residencies and fellowships are available within the Mount Sinai Health System’s seven hospitals. We also offer residency and fellowship programs at 11 other affiliate hospitals.
