“Our residents will get the advantages of a community hospital — close relationships, collegiality, and individualized attention — while still receiving robust academic and clinical exposure.”
Steven C. Yap, MD, MBA
Program Director and Chairperson, speaking to the ASA Monitor on the programs shaping the next generation of anesthesiologists.
Why South Brooklyn Health
Everything a large program offers, without disappearing into one.
We built this residency around a straightforward idea: residents learn fastest when the people teaching them are accountable for how they turn out.
Three residents a class
Faculty know each resident’s strengths and gaps by name. Teaching is aimed at you, not at the middle of a lecture hall.
Your Program Director chairs the department
One less layer between residents and hospital leadership, and an advocate for your interests with real authority to act.
A brand-new hospital
A $923 million facility with modern operating rooms, an endoscopy suite and an emergency department, built for teaching as well as care.
A case mix that teaches
A public hospital serving a community that arrives with advanced disease and significant medical comorbidity. You will not be short of complexity.
A curriculum written here
Lectures, tutorials, journal club and simulation scenarios authored inside the department for our residents — and revised when they stop working.
National partners
Cardiac anesthesia at Massachusetts General Hospital. Pediatric anesthesia at Johns Hopkins All Children’s. Critical care within NYC Health + Hospitals.
Where you will train
A $923 million hospital, opened for this generation of residents.
Our new hospital gave South Brooklyn Health something most community programs cannot offer: a purpose-built, modern clinical environment designed around how care is actually delivered today.
