A friend of mine was asking about the programs in NYC and not knowing anything about it I thought I would post a request here. Outside of the top university programs (Columbia, Mount Sinai, Cornell, Albert Einstein, NYU), do you guys have any opinions on the better programs in the city? Thanks

Just don't. Seriously.
more specifics??
I'm a 4th year student so take it with a grain of salt, but I am also a Downstate student who rotated there - Maimonides Hospital in Brooklyn has a fantastic cardiology dept. I spent a month there on the medicine service on a unit that primarily took care of cardio patients. Very, very solid teaching from the attendings and fellows, and what seemed to be plenty of volume. I don't know how it compares to the Cleveland Clinics of the world, but I'd certainly recommend family/friends there if they needed a procedure.
The question was about Methodist though, not Maimo. Maimo's got it's problems but it's got pretty great pathology and decent teaching. Methodist mostly just has it's problems.
From what I remember (and it's been 6 years or so), pretty decent for cards. In spite of it now being affiliated with the new Hofstra med school, it's still pretty much a community program.
