Ellis Hospital of Schenectady Program

Program Description

Our program offers strong clinical exposure in a community that is family physician supportive. We have active attending involvement and excellent subspecialty support including strong obstetrical and internal medicine experience. We have an excellent clinical experience in taking care of an at risk HIV population. We are expanding our already present outreach to homeless patients as well. Our osteopathic training, pediatric hospitalist and active home visit program provide great teaching for our residents. We are extremely lucky to have such a collegial group. Our program produces physicians who practice successfully in today's rapidly changing medical and economic environment.
