Does Anyone Out There Have Any Input On Family Medicine Residencies In Nyc/manhattan/brooklyn/queens/bronx/etc? I Really Want A Position Somewhere In Those Areas Because I Want To Live In Manhattan, But Want Patient Diversity, Great Training, Plenty Of Procedures, Camaraderie, And A Fair Work Load/call Schedule? Please Help!!!

bronx: Montefiore Residency Program in Social Medicine
manhattan: Beth Israel Residency in Urban Family Medicine
Columbia University Family Medicine Residency Program
brooklyn: Downstate
queens: Jamaica

there are several others. these are the "bigger" programs in the city -- either in size or reputation. the first 3 are among the most popular in the city.

feel free to pm with questions. i will say though that in general it's tough to get a lot of procedures in inner-city programs -- i mean, if you are aggressive you can get them.
