Pediatric Emergency Medicine

About Us

Welcome! The Division of Pediatric Emergency Medicine is an integral part of resident education as we teach pediatric emergency medicine to not only our emergency medicine but also our pediatric and family medicine residents. At The Mount Sinai Hospital, our Pediatric Emergency Department serves as the hub of emergency medicine for the Health System, receiving transfers from around New York City for pediatric specialty care and evaluation. Our annual patient volume is 25,000 at The Mount Sinai Hospital and 80,000 throughout the Mount Sinai Health System. The Division is housed in the Department of Emergency Medicine and is fully integrated with the Department of Pediatrics.

Our pediatrics curriculum is led by our highly successful and diverse fellowship-trained pediatric emergency medicine faculty with experience in ultrasoundsimulation, community outreach, research, education, and more. They teach, supervise, and provide our residents with a well-rounded exposure to pediatric care and patients of all ages. Residents do dedicated rotations in the Pediatric ED, and during later years of training, PEM shifts are distributed throughout their ED blocks. Residents also spend time in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) at Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital. Additionally, we have an outstanding three-year Pediatric Emergency Medicine Fellowship program open to pediatric and emergency medicine residency graduates.
