Our program is also closely affiliated with Children's Hospital at Montefiore, a premier tertiary-care children's hospital. Through Jacobi's Level 1 Trauma Pediatric ED and CHAM's Pediatric ED, you will receive exceptional training in a wide range of pediatric emergencies.
In fact, the ED at CHAM is one of the busiest pediatric emergency departments in the Northeast, caring for approximately 60,000 children each year. And the Jacobi Pediatric ED is the only Pediatric Trauma Center for the Bronx and southern Westchester, and the busiest in the NYC region. Our pediatric faculty is one of the largest groups of fellowship-trained and sub-board-certified emergency medicine physicians on the East Coast. Training involves dual fellowships at each institution, including the first Pediatric EM fellowship in the country at Jacobi Medical Center.
