Pediatrics Residency at The Mount Sinai Hospital

The Pediatrics Residency Training Program, located at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, is as vibrant and stimulating as the city we live and work in. The mission of our pediatric residency program is to train driven, intellectually curious pediatricians with diverse experiences who deliver expert, compassionate clinical care through the seamless integration of science, advocacy, and education.

Our curriculum provides the building blocks for a comprehensive, well-rounded education in pediatrics while maintaining both balance and flexibility. We will equip you with the skills you need for a successful career through exposure to primary care pediatrics and subspecialty care. Our graduates go on to a wide variety of careers, including academic medicine, primary care practice, and public health. Furthermore, while Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS) is known for its exceptional faculty, the unique learning environment of New York City offers and experience few other institutions can match.

Residents experience a real-world environment with an unparalleled mix of pathologies, cultures, languages, and socioeconomic backgrounds. It’s an extraordinary population to not just care for, but learn from.
