NYMC Phelps Residency

The need for young, highly skilled family physicians has never been greater. That’s why some of New York’s top healthcare experts joined forces to create the state’s first new family medicine residency since 1995. This cutting-edge program seeks an inspired few residents to help lead this pioneering effort.

A superb benefits package will help you thrive professionally and personally as a resident of our program. Subsidized housing at Phelps Hospital will allow you to enjoy the serene environs of Sleepy Hollow, where the hospital’s campus is nestled along the magnificent Hudson River. Nature is everywhere, with miles of trails, ponds and wildlife to explore. When the big city beckons, a relaxing train ride gets you to Manhattan in under 45 minutes.

An entire community of teachers is in place, eager to support and grow your talents as an outstanding family physician. Your clinical skills and medical knowledge will be honed by many of the best and brightest medical minds as you work through comprehensive rotations with patients at the nationally-recognized Open Door Family Medical Centers, Phelps Memorial Hospital Center and Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital.

As a resident of our innovative program, you will be part of an inaugural class, just 1 member in a class of 6. Your successful education as a family medicine specialist is the singular goal of this university-affiliated, unopposed, community-based program. Your training will not only build your medical skills and knowledge, but also your ability to become a leading voice in the future of American healthcare.
