Congratulations to our Resident and Fellow of the Month: Dr. Cameron Kiani (PGY-3, Occupational & Environmental Medicine) and Dr. Katherine Dalldorf (PGY-6, Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine) at The Mount Sinai Hospital.

Dr. Dalldorf is a standout in the NICU—bringing evidence-based innovation, compassion, and team spirit to every shift. She consistently goes the extra mile for her patients, families, and colleagues.
