hospital is very beautiful and very much peds centered. Wide variety of pathology and patient population.... only major children's hospital between the Bronx and Albany, so you will see a lot - great salary - resident driven - can get AOA approval - PD and APD are great - the residents are fun/cool/laid back, they really help each other and like each other - no scholarly requirement Report as inappropriate

What impressed you negatively?:

q4 with lots of cross coverage - # residents is too small for such a busy hospital (16 each year) - Westchester County can be expensive, but there are affordable areas - not in NYC but NYC is only 30min away - no official peds derm, but have everything else including rheum Report as inappropriate
