Family Medicine Residency Program At New York – Presbyterian To Remain Open
International Business Times reported that “after reports said Tuesday that New York-Presbyterian Hospital would shutter its family medicine program in 2016, a spokeswoman for the hospital said it would keep open at least one clinic within the program, although details about what changes that decision would spell for the next academic year, as well as the fate of other clinics at the Center for Family Medicine, remained unclear.”
In the statement, Karen Sodomick said, “After listening to feedback from our medical staff, we have decided that the family medicine residency program at The Herman ‘Denny’ Farrell Jr. Community Health Center will stay open and the faculty will remain. We will be accepting an additional class of residents in its current form as we explore the development – in close collaboration with faculty, residents and medical students — of other potential models of primary care training and delivery in the future.”
