The Emergency Medicine residency program is an intensive three-year training that prepares the resident to be fully prepared to practice independently in all aspects of emergency medicine.
With an exciting teaching faculty comprised of Board Certified/Board Eligible EM faculty, who are from various training programs from across the country, the Emergency Medicine program is fully accredited by the AOA and ACOEP.
A modern state of the art facility, experienced faculty, small groups and personal attention within a large full functioning medical center make this dually accredited ACGME-and AOA-accredited St. Joseph's-Mount Sinai Family Medicine Residency a unique program.
The program's curriculum is seamlessly integrated allowing osteopathic physicians to fulfill the AOA-required internship while simultaneously fulfilling requirements for both the ACGME and AOA family medicine boards. Centered on core lectures, the diverse and innovative curriculum is offered on two 18-month cycles, including departmental and institutional grand rounds, morning conferences, and the lectures given during our weekly morning academic session.
Applicants must be highly qualified, energetic, hard working and dedicated to becoming the best doctors they can be through hard work and learning with the support of a team of caring, experienced faculty. Graduates leave with the confidence and ability to succeed anywhere they choose, at anything they choose.
Welcome to the St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center General Surgery Residency web page. We offer an exciting residency committed to training the highest level of physician and skilled surgeon. Our vision is graduating the academically based, broadly trained self-sufficient surgeon who can move directly into fellowship or practice with equal confidence. All specialties are represented on premise, and essentially all of your training will be conducted at St. Joseph's. Our residents participate in two outside rotations; one at the Valley Hospital, Ridgewood, NJ for focused hepato-biliary/minimally invasive surgery and one at St. Barnabas, Livingston, NJ for transplant. We have a very committed faculty with more than 50 boarded surgeons covering General Surgery, Trauma, Critical Care, Pediatric Surgery, Vascular Surgery, Thoracic Surgery, Cardiothoracic, ENT, Urology, and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Residents are involved in managing trauma on a daily basis. We see more than 1000 major traumas each year. Our Emergency Department volume is the busiest in the state at over 130,000 visits per year and our recently opened Critical Care building has expanded our ED, adding 56 Critical Care beds, 12 new operating theaters and a new rooftop helistop capable of accepting larger medical helicopters with emergency procedure space.
