Stony Brook offers a diverse patient panel in both academic and VA hospitals, a strong culture for bedside teaching and interactive resident conferences (residents break into diagnostic teams to discuss cases. Hint: it's not Lupus... well, at least most of the time), institutionalized innovations such as bedside ultrasound training, cardiac arrest protocols with mechanical CPR, EMR software solutions for standardized physician hand-offs, and advanced MICU and CCU units with associated step-down units for each. More than that, Dr. Lane is very supportive, the chief residents are friendly, and the vast majority of residents are foodies with strong recommendations for restaurants. |
