Overview

Saint Vincent Catholic Medical Centers Queens Residency in Family Practice and Community Medicine was established in 1979. Since that time, the quality our family practice residency programs has remained high and is reflected in the number and quality of our applicants and residents, the excellence of our faculty, and the strong support of our community of hospitals in providing up-to-date facilities and skilled staff. Our program strives to promote excellence in residency education, provide academic support, and respond to society's ever-increasing demand for skilled family physicians. Our patients represent a cross-section of the various ethnic and socioeconomic groups living within New York City. Here the residents see the complete spectrum of medical and socially related problems.

We have seven residents a year (7-7-7) and our primary hospital is Mary Immaculate, located in Jamaica, Queens. Over 85% of our rotations occur there; the rest take place at our sister hospital St. John's Queens in Elmhurst. These two hospitals are part of the larger Saint Vincent Catholic Medical Centers (SVCMC), New York's second largest healthcare system.
