Pediatrics

The pediatric curriculum is taught and supervised by a strong faculty comprised of seven fellowship-trained attendings, and provides our residents with well-rounded exposure to pediatric patients of all ages. Rotations on the pediatrics floor at Elmhurst Hospital in the PICU at Mount Sinai help our residents develop expertise in treating acutely ill pediatric patients through all stages of their illnesses. Several emergency medicine rotations are dedicated to pediatric emergency medicine, and all EM rotations during the 3rd and 4th years include shifts in the Pediatric Emergency Department at Mount Sinai. Mount Sinai's pediatric ED sees approximately 30,000 patients including many subspecialty patients from the transplant, hematology/oncology, metabolic, and endocrinology services. Residents also treat pediatric patients during their orthopedics rotation. A pediatric elective and Senior Specialty Track are also available to interested residents.
