Preliminary Residency

Our extremely well-regarded preliminary residency program offers a variety of inpatient and outpatient experiences in general medicine and specialty services at The Mount Sinai Hospital, Elmhurst Hospital Center, and The Bronx Veterans Affairs Medical Center.

The preliminary residency provides a strong foundation in internal medicine which graduates can draw upon in their subsequent specialty training. Most of our preliminary residents complete their post-graduate training in the following areas: Anesthesiology, Neurology, Dermatology, Radiation Oncology, Radiology and Ophthalmology.

A typical Prelim schedule is as follows:

 

PRELIM  BLOCKS
Ward Blocks 7-8
ICU 0
Outpatient 1
Vacation 1
Elective 2
Night Med 1-1.5
ER 0

      

Those applicants interested in the preliminary year should so indicate on their application, and use the appropriate NRMP number.
