Residency

The Department of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine (AECOM) is a multi-site, multi-borough residency with a rich mixture of clinical endeavors.  Residents train at all affiliated hospitals of the medical school, which are organized into three campuses. The hospitals of the Bronx campus are Montefiore Medical Center (MMC) (Moses and Weiler Divisions) including the Children's Hospital at Montefiore (CHAM), and Jacobi Medical Center (JMC).  The Queens campus consists of Long Island Jewish Medical Center (LIJMC) including the Schneider Children's Hospital (SCH), and the Manhattan campus consists of Beth Israel Medical Center (BIMC).

The Program Director of the Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery residency is the Academic Chairman of the Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery of AECOM, Marvin P. Fried M.D.  Each of the participating sites has an otolaryngologist, designated by the Chairman, who serves as local site director.

The site director is responsible for the education and training of the residents while at that campus.  In addition, there is an academic steering committee, appointed by the Chairman and consisting of the site directors or their representatives, which assists in the management and oversight of the program and reports to the Chairman.
