Welcome!

Thank you for your interest in the Residency Program in Internal Medicine at the Donald & Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. Our 130 residents are the Department’s heart and soul, along with our dedicated full-time faculty of more than 300, all collaborating to develop the next generation of healers, thinkers, leaders, and educators.

Northwell’s program is among the largest in the nation, graduating about 60 trainees a year and matching another 60, the second largest Match in New York State. Both of the main training sites are set in a beautiful suburban community just 30 minutes from Manhattan, serving a unique patient population drawn from a service area of almost 8 Karen A. Friedman MD MS FACP million people across Long Island, New York City, and beyond. The size and diversity of Residency Program Director this patient population not only attract patients with the most challenging conditions but Vice Chair for Education Associate also draw the most talented trainees and educators. Professor of Medicine Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Northwell’s residents are surrounded by opportunity and support, with the strong Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell presence of the Donald & Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell sparking new ideas and perspectives on teaching and learning medicine. Opportunities for research are plentiful, with many faculty welcoming and supporting trainees at the world-class Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research right on campus.

The residency program is deeply committed to evidence-based strategies for physician education, whether classic or cutting-edge. Most didactics are case-based and set in small groups. Team-based learning is the norm in the ambulatory setting. We have also embraced the track, which allows residents to customize their learning. Our tracks include research, the clinician-educator, global health, healthcare reform and advocacy, a community health track, and IMPACcT (IMproving Patient Access, Care, & cost through Training), an interprofessional primary care training program.

Our program consistently and creatively prioritizes resident well-being and work-life balance, starting with its innovative Continuity Model of house staff education. In a variation on “protected time”, each four-week block of inpatient duty is followed by a week dedicated to ambulatory education -- which starts with a weekend off. Residents are thus guaranteed a predictable schedule over time and the comfort of sleeping in their own beds for at least one out of five weeks. This strategy eliminates pressure on residents to virtually be in two places at once; resident life assumes a consistent rhythm and “sleep debit” is minimized. The system enhances not only resident well-being but also clinical care, as it reduces the fragmentation and waste that accompany the traditional system with its constant interruptions.

It’s impossible to capture the Northwell experience in this limited space. The quality of the teaching, the beautiful setting, the warmth of bright, supportive peers, the commitment of staff and administration, including the support that frees up our trainees to focus their time and energy on learning…these don’t come through in the facts and figures but they’re major factors in our success. That’s why we hope that you’ll be in touch with us – to ask questions, request an interview, or get help with the application process.

Advantages to Inpatient Rotations – Mimics real life – Reduces fragmentation of work – Increases efficiency – Provides flexibility in didactics – Provides flexibility in days off – Enhances attending teaching time – Enhances resident to intern education – Enhances medical student education – Better subspecialty experience

Advantages to Ambulatory Rotation – Enhances Continuity of Care – Limits distractions and the need to “get back to the hospital” – Eliminates switching clinic days – Greater ability to see patients you discharge in clinic – Opportunity to obtain a longitudinal outpatient subspecialty experience for career development – Provides flexibility for structured research time – Enhances rest

Call Schedules There are two types of inpatient floor teams: Low teams (1-4) and Care Model teams (A&B). The Low teams are on call at both sites every four days and take admissions until 7pm. On call and post-call days, Low teams may receive “holdovers,” referring to patients who are admitted overnight and signed out to the housestaff team in the morning. Each intern caps at 8 patients. The Care Model teams receive new patients daily via a drip system as they are transferred to the Care Model floors (5 Monti at NS and 9S at LIJ). Some of these patients will be admitted by the Day-Admitting Resident (PGY-2) prior to arrival to the Care Model floor. Each intern caps 8-9 patients. Elective, Ambulatory, Geriatrics, Neurology, Palliative Care and Private Practice Rotations have no call; residents work Mondays through Fridays on those rotations.

Conference Courses A combination of didactic conferences and interactive small group teaching sessions are offered throughout the academic year. These include daily noon conferences, morning reports (3 times per week), intern reports (2 times per week), Grand Rounds, Professor Rounds with the department chairman, outpatient team based learning, physical diagnosis courses and simulation sessions. In addition, all residents participate in a four-week Evidence Based Medicine Course and a four-week Practice Based Learning and Quality Improvement Course during Ambulatory Block Rotations.

Ancillary Services Northwell provides a full complement of ancillary services, including phlebotomy, IV teams, transport, physical therapy, respiratory therapy, care coordination, ECG acquisition and others.

FAQ

Do I have to go into primary care if I participate?

No, you do not have to enter primary care if you participate. This will be an experience that we hope increases your interest in primary care and ambulatory medicine (particularly by working with a very dedicated and enthusiastic faculty). How will my role be different if I participate in IMPACcT?

In addition to continuing to see ambulatory patients for acute, chronic care and well visits, you will be trained in leading an interprofessional team (pharmacy, physician assistant, behavioral health team). Care delivery and other clinical responsibilities (i.e. task management) will be shared amongst this team.

Are there opportunities for additional clinical time if I participate in IMPACcT?

We are hoping to include additional clinic time in the 3rd year and are working with Residency Leadership to accomplish this.

How is the educational experience going to be different than my current continuity experience?

You will continue to participate in Evidence-based Medicine, TBL, and the Thursday morning ambulatory education sessions. In addition, there will be short case-based didactic sessions with a clinical huddle 2-3 times a week while you’re in clinic, and IMPACcT Workshop Sessions (Thursday afternoons, 5 times a year) which bring together all of the IMPACcT learners and faculty to focus on specific topics (Interprofessional Skills, Health Disparities, Medication Management, Behavioral Health, and PCMH Principles).

What about my current continuity patient panel? Will I lose those patients if I enter IMPACcT?

As your IMPACcT experience will take the place of your usual continuity clinic sessions, it is our goal that your established patients will follow right along with you. This will be a bigger switch for the patients if you currently practice at the ACU, but we will try to facilitate this transition.

How many residents will there be?

There will be 5 R2 and 5 R3 residents in the program. Each firm will have one R2 and one R3.

What our Nurses say….

“I just wanted to take the opportunity to recognize Winston Wong, MD. I believe he is the resident covering a patient in our unit. Joint Commission was on our unit and we reviewed the chart and the plan of care for the patient. Dr. Wong was invited, he was present and assisted in speaking about this patient which helped us get through the survey. This interdisciplinary approach really impressed the surveyor. He did a phenomenal job and we thank him for his work and dedication.”

5N Nurse Manager

“I would like to inform you of how impressed I was with Dr. Alicia Chionchio. She had to cover the CCU this past Sunday for a sick intern. The unit was high acuity, and we received a transfer from Forest Hills Hospital. Initially, we thought this patient was having an acute MI. There were EKG changes suggestive of ischemia, and he had chest pain 10/10. The interventional cardiologist was concerned and came from home to further evaluate the patient. Alicia found a friction rub and suggested this could be pericarditis. In fact, it was pericarditis and the cardiologists were quite impressed with her physical exam skills. Throughout the day, she was extremely helpful and skillful for someone who was just covering. I want to extend my thanks to Alicia and I look forward to working with her in the future. She was kind enough to email me research studies on pericarditis as well. Thank you again for your time.”

Kelly Guidice NP

“This morning on Interdisciplinary Rounds, my team witnessed an interaction between a Resident and patient that we feel needs to be celebrated and acknowledged. Dr. Eugene Lucas was seeing his patient on 6 Monti. This 78 year old woman is receiving comfort feeds, is a DNR/DNI, and is frail and afraid. The team had some questions about the overall plan, and noticed the Resident enter the room. When I walked towards the door, I saw him feeding the patient some applesauce, and smiling while he spoke with her. When he came out, he was happy to discuss the patient with our team. He circled back to ask me if we could arrange for her to borrow a phone so that she could listen to music. He said that she liked classical music, gave me the name of some of her favorite composers, and stated that she would probably like headphones, as she is very courteous of her roommate.”

“Dr. Lucas exemplifies the Culture of CARE behaviors that we are all working so hard to hard wire into our Northwell culture. His interaction this morning had my IDR team feeling inspired! While we complimented him on his caring and professionalism, we all feel that he deserves to be recognized for his caring and compassion by his leadership team. Thank you!”

Kathy Green MBA, RN, NE-BC

What our Fellows say…

“We are often quick to criticize and we often don’t thank people enough. I want you to know that James Newman did a fantastic job in the MICU helping us to do something wonderful for a terminal patient. She is a ManU fan and he was able to get in touch with the head of the fan club here in NY so we were able to get a care package from Man U. I was really impressed and thought you guys should know.”

Karan Singh, MD Pulmonary Fellow

“Daniel Clement did an excellent job at AI Clinic. He stayed late and saw a lot of patients. Very impressed with him!”

Brianne Navetta-Modrov Allergy Immunology Fellow What our Attendings say…

“Neal, I just thought you’d like to know that you were mentioned by name on a recent Press Ganey. The patient stated that they would like to thank you for ‘showing empathy and explaining to me about my current health condition.’ Thank you for your continued hard work and dedication to patient care.”

John Raimo, MD, FACP

“Hello, I just want to bring to your attention exceptional experience we had with one of the resident. This past Saturday, we had Priyanka Chopra doing night admit coverage shift and I am pleased to say the nocturnal hospitalist group was very, very impressed with her clinical acumen, medical knowledge, compassion, thoroughness, and documentation. In fact, one hospitalist thought she was third year resident doing coverage shift!. She did 6-admissions that night and it was her first night admitting shift and considering she is an intern with 8-months of experience, this is highly exceptional and deserves much kudos. Please feel free to share this with others in residency program including Dr. Katona and Dr. Friedman.”

Thanks, Kush Bhorania, MD

“Just wanted to share that I have been impressed with David Garret taking care of patients overnight. Here is a note he wrote overnight checking in on a sick patient we admitted late yesterday...Really a nice job.”

Sean LaVine, MD

“I want to let you know what a great job Danielle and Craig did today on 6 South. They have a very challenging patient with both complicated psychosocial and acute medical issues. They spent a lot of time over the past day coordinating procedures, medications, and her general care. They were diligent, professional, and caring- even when rebuffed by the patient. As you know, these patients can be very difficult to care for and significant improvements are often not actualized until long after they leave our facility. This can be discouraging but Danielle and Craig are persisting through. Danielle and Craig- your efforts are noticed and appreciated.”

Best, Jessy

Jessy Warner-Cohen, PhD, MPH

What our Patients say…

“Good afternoon. We received the following compliment about your care from patient. On behalf of hospital administration, we would like to thank you for the impact you had on this particular patient during his stay.”

‘I wish to single out Dr. A. Hedjar and A. Myers for the excellent care, including explanations and reasons for various tests, answering all my questions and concerns, and keeping me abreast of the status of my health. I really appreciated frequent visits of Dr. Hedjar and A. Meyers which made me feel that they really care about my well being.’

“We are excited to send our sincere thanks, and we are confident that we will continue to receive positive feedback about your care in the future. We appreciate your partnership in providing our patients with the highest quality, most compassionate care.”

Thank You! “Dear Dr. Garrett, we received the following compliment about your care from a patient. On behalf of hospital administration, we would like to thank you for the impact you had on this particular patient during his stay.”

‘I would like to recognize Dr. David Garrett for the excellent care he provided me during my stay. He visited me every day. I appreciated that he would explain to me what my condition was.’

“We are excited to send our sincere thanks, and we are confident that we will continue to receive positive feedback about your care in the future. We appreciate your partnership in providing our patients with the highest quality, most compassionate care.”

Thank You!

What our Graduates say…

“I hope all is well. I am emailing you to personally thank you for the amazing training I came away with from North Shore LIJ. Despite a rigorous schedule as a first year cardiovascular fellow, in a new medical center, starting off my training in the cath lab, I still felt prepared for the internal medicine boards. More importantly, the training I came away with from NSLIJ was truly excellent and a large part of my experience at NSLIJ was due to your approachability, guidance, time and support. Thank you again for everything and I hope that we can continue to stay in touch.”

Best regards, Jossef Amirian, M.D. Cardiovascular Diseases Fellow, Mount Sinai Beth Israel

“I always think about how much this program has done for me. I need to stop by the hospital more! I just wanted to thank you for selecting me from medical school and for the opportunity to train at your program. The program got me everything I could ask for, most importantly for me the fellowship I wanted and helping me to pass the medicine boards. You do a lot for residents and we are lucky to have a program director that does care how we do. A/I fellowship is going fantastic so far. It does get busy but it’s great! I hope everything is going well with you and that the program continues to excel!”

Take care, Shaan Waqar, M.D. Allergy/Immunology Fellow, North Shore-LIJ

Hey guys!

Hope the craziness of July is winding down and things are starting to get a little easier back at home. Wanted to update you guys and everyone else on the Uganda trip. It is just as amazing as Sean, Rahmat, Joe, Krystal and Safiya made it sound last year. I've seen some incredible cases, especially ID and cardiac, that you would never see back in Long Island. We had to do lots of reading on Brucella, typhoid, and rheumatic heart disease (been a long time since I had heard of Sydenham's chorea) the past few weeks. The most surprising thing is how much chronic disease is here. There are a sizable chunk of patients admitted for heart failure and COPD exacerbations that I didn't expect. But for every one of those patients, there is an HIV case with a weird presentation of TB. It's a lot of work, about 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, but there isn't any pressure for following up consults or the stress of trying to save H+Ps five times unsuccessfully.

The town is incredible, with amazing scenery and pretty good food. I was surprised that my first dinner here was actually a cheeseburger with fries. We've climbed up most of the hills around the area, been to a couple of lakes, and done a few motorcycle rides.

I'll bring back lots of pictures and more stories. Hopefully we can do a noon conference after Mo gets back in September. All the best to everyone back home.

See you guys soon!

Esteemed Colleagues,

My time here has been remarkably rewarding and is exceeding all of my expectations. The country and the culture are beautiful. The smiles are innumerable. The benevolence is ubiquitous. The patients immediately inform you of their gratitude and appreciation for the slightest minutia of medical attention.

The pathology seen here is unparalleled to anything in the developed world. Naming only a small sample of diseases encountered typhoid fever, pemphigous vulgaris, I drained an abscess on a 2week old infant, molar pregnancy, a 12 year old with heart failure and a right ventricular heave, and of course malaria.

It is an injustice to the elective to limit its summation to a few brief paragraphs, and especially since I have much more time in Kisoro. If you are thinking of doing this elective, don’t think, do it and accept the challenge. Isn’t your appetite for challenges, why you chose internal medicine in the first place?

Public Health Elective – New York ACP

My time at the NY Chapter of the American College of Physicians was enlightening and extremely rewarding. I started this elective rotation expecting to learn more about healthcare legislation, but by the end the month, I had gained a much greater understanding of the true intricacies of creating a substantial and lasting piece of law. As I reviewed the many bills being proposed in Albany, I realized that the legislature was considering measures every day that could drastically change the way medicine is practiced. If we as physicians don’t take it upon ourselves to learn about current legislation and to make our voices heard, the entire landscape of the healthcare system could change without the advice of the people who actually work in it every day.

This experience changed the way that I view healthcare. During residency, we are so focused on the task at hand or the single patient in front of us that we often fail to see the bigger picture and the medical system as a whole. During my month in Albany, I was able to step away from my individual patients and consider healthcare from a population standpoint; I was able to see how making changes in legislation can actually affect the health and wellbeing of millions of patients at a time. I was also able to see firsthand how my medical training and knowledge could be useful to legislators, most of whom cannot name medicine as their primary area of expertise. This experience showed me how a single person can inspire change in a society, and I feel extremely fortunate to have been allowed this opportunity during my medical training. -Claire Popplewell, MD
