Chief Residents

Each year, two PL-4 chief residents are appointed based on demonstrated excellence in leadership, teaching, and clinical performance.

The chief residents represent a vital clinical and academic link between house staff and faculty.

They manage the house staff program and direct the house staff patient-care services at Bellevue and Tisch Hospitals, play a major role in education and clinical decision making, organize many of the departmental conferences, and perform diverse administrative functions.
