Our leadership team, faculty, residents, outpatient and hospital communities believe that working together creates the best learning environment—and that means better health for all. There are a few ways that we achieve this:
- We are the only residency program housed at Phelps, which grants us countless opportunities for one-to-one learning with our illustrious faculty and hospital staff.
- We
tailor your learning experience to your preferences through elective rotations, offering multiple areas of concentration (e.g., women’s health, global health, hospitalist medicine) and individualized learning plans to support your unique goals during residency.
- We expand your horizons in meeting all the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) requirements for independent, comprehensive practice and beyond.
- We expose you to a variety of patients from our hospital community, which draws from the socioeconomic and cultural diversity of Westchester County, as well as with our partnership with Open Door Family Medical Centers, a nationally recognized patient-centered medical home (PCMH), where both our residents and faculty practice comprehensive health care for our community.
- We put team wellness first through a strong behavioral health curriculum, wellness days for residents, group therapy, end of rotation celebrations, team retreats, and community service experiences.
- We offer a longitudinal health equity curriculum focused on improving health outcomes for all by examining social determinants of health, including but not limited to immigration and migrant health, reproductive justice, medical Spanish, and community medicine.
- We approach education with flexibility, enthusiasm, camaraderie, and a vision for continual improvement through regular check-ins with faculty, residents, administrative leadership, and clinical care teams. Our goal is to expose you to the multitude of experiences that family medicine has to offer to prepare you for a lifetime of personal and professional success. We are committed to graduating family medicine physicians who are well-equipped to succeed in autonomous practice. PROGRAM DIRECTOR
