Residency Overview

The Podiatric Residency Program at The Brooklyn Hospital Center is an CPME approved PMSR R/RA program, which accepts three residents for the PMSR R/RA position. Our Institution is a Clinical Affiliate of The Mount Sinai Hospital Academic Affiliate of The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. The Brooklyn Hospital Center Podiatric Residency Program is a full three year program. At The Brooklyn Hospital Center, residents' practice alongside dedicated podiatric physicians. Our podiatric residency teaching staff and the Program Director are greatly experienced in forefoot and rear foot/ankle surgery, wound care, reconstructive foot surgery, and traumatology. Experience is gained through time spent in clinical facilities, which are predominantly managed by the residents with support by an attending staff. Time spent in a clinical atmosphere allows residents to work up the surgical patient, decide on the most appropriate procedure, and manage the patient post-operatively.
