MEDICINE<br />
The Department of Medicine is the largest department at at <strong>Montefiore</strong> <strong>Medical</strong> Center, the<br />
University Hospital of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine (AECOM). Two campuses<br />
provide a full range of services to patients and are a major teaching and research resource in the<br />
Bronx.<br />
The Moses and Weiler sites train one-half of each AECOM class in Internal Medicine,<br />
and 155 Internal Medicine residents in the categorical, preliminary, primary care, and social<br />
internal medicine residency programs. Strong subspecialty programs contribute to patient care,<br />
provide consultative support to the <strong>House</strong> <strong>Staff</strong>, and provide excellent training for over 100<br />
fellows.<br />
The house staff and fellows also rotate through Jacobi Hospital, and some Fellows rotate<br />
through North Central Bronx hospital, both part of the Health & Hospital Corporations (NYC)<br />
System.<br />
Approximately 230 full-time and a number of voluntary faculty members provide<br />
supervision of the residents and students and participate in the teaching activities of the<br />
programs.<br />
Between them, the Moses and Weiler sites provide care to a daily census of over 400<br />
Internal Medicine inpatients and to an ever-increasing number of outpatient patients around the<br />
Bronx. The Department also provides a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic services<br />
including: Cardiac Catheterization, Interventional Angioplasty,<br />
Echocardiography, Holter Monitoring, Stress Testing, Renal Dialysis, GI Endoscopy, Pulmonary<br />
Function Studies, Diabetes care, and Diabetes education and consultation.<br />
