About The Position

Weekday interventional practice in New York City – procedures, not a reading list.

Kingsbridge and Riverdale offer quiet residential streets minutes from the Hudson, Arthur Avenue serves some of the best Italian food in the city, and Yankee Stadium is a short ride away. Manhattan is 20 minutes south by subway or Metro-North, and Westchester, the Hudson Valley and northern New Jersey are an easy commute for physicians who prefer the suburbs. Getting Here LaGuardia Airport (LGA) – approximately 8 miles / 20 minutes. John F. Kennedy International (JFK) – approximately 17 miles / 35 minutes. Newark Liberty International (EWR) – approximately 23 miles / 40 minutes. The Facility James J. Peters VA Medical Center is a 311-bed tertiary care teaching hospital in the Kingsbridge section of the Bronx, affiliated with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
