Dear Department of Medicine Community,
I am thrilled to announce that Dr. Sneha Shrivastava has joined us as the new Primary Care Track Associate Program Director starting today.
Dr. Shrivastava brings a wealth of experience and expertise to our program. She earned her Bachelor of Science from York University and Medical Degree from St. George's University. She completed her Internal Medicine Residency Training at Allegheny General Hospital where she was part of their Primary Care Track. Following residency, Dr. Shrivastava practiced outpatient general internal medicine at Cornerstone Family Healthcare for 4 years and then completed a General Internal Medicine Fellowship at Northwell Health, where she also earned a Master of Science in Health Professions Education from Hofstra University.
Dr. Shrivastava's academic and professional endeavors reflect an unwavering commitment to advancing medical education and women's health. Following fellowship, she became a Menopause Society Certified Provider and she was appointed as core faculty of Hofstra/Northwell's Internal Residency Program and the Director of Women's Health Education. Within this role, she has created a Women's Health Clinic for Internal Medicine residents and instituted several innovative curricula to improve gender-specific care for medical student, residents and fellows. Since February 2024, she has served as one of Northwell's Associate Program Directors and Resident Clinic Site Director.
Dr. Shrivastava also holds several leadership roles in various organizations, including serving as the Secretary-Treasurer of the Society of General Internal Medicine (SGIM) Mid-Atlantic Region, and the lead chair of the Parenting in Medicine (PIM) Interest Group and at the Women and Medicine Commission at SGIM. In addition, Dr. Shrivastava has hosted several regional and national workshops, and co-authored several peer-reviewed publications and book chapters regarding innovative women's health curricula, demonstrating her commitment to scholarly contributions that influence patient care and medical training.
We are excited to have Dr. Shrivastava join us and look forward to the fresh perspectives and energy she will bring to our team. Please join us in welcoming her to Stony Brook!
