Otorhinolaryngology – Head & Neck Surgery (ORL-HNS) Education & Training

At Montefiore Einstein Otorhinolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery (ORL-HNS), we are guided by a mission to heal, teach, discover and advance the health of the communities we serve. We are widely recognized for our expertise and innovation in medical simulation, from otorhinolaryngology boot camps to in situ training designed to improve patient outcomes. Working within our Program that cultivates a framework for lifelong learning, our otorhinolaryngology residents develop the clinical and surgical skills necessary to deliver empathetic, humble and skilled patient care. Our Program teaches state-of-the-art medicine informed by evidence and emphasizes a patient-first ethic while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. We nurture leadership and foster an investigative and curious approach to medicine. In the process, we develop skilled physicians, many of whom move on to the job or fellowship of their choice.

We develop and expand programs designed to advance teamwork, communication and decision-making. Our focus on comprehensive care provides an ideal training ground for our residents and fellows.
