Stony Brook Emergency Medicine

Stony Brook University Hospital is the major Tertiary Care and Level 1 Trauma center for all of Eastern Long Island (1.5 million) with ~100K visits per year (Peds+Adults).

What sets us apart is the remarkably talented, invested, and world-renowned faculty here at Stony Brook. The residency program and fellowships are led by outstanding clinician-educators, and the EUS fellowship is no exception.

Emergency ultrasound is a small and close-knit community, so we also encourage collaboration with our colleagues in the Tri-State area. We offer conference participation and networking opportunities across the eastern seaboard.

Our Emergency Department gives ultrasound fellows the opportunity to scan a high volume of trauma, critical care, and pediatric patients. Our 3-year Residency Program has 16 residents per class who are all eager to learn from fellows.

The Ultrasound Division is highly involved in teaching and providing leadership to other specialties. Fellows will be heavily involved in teaching all levels, from medical students, to EMS providers, and Advanced Practice Providers. Other specialties that we teach include Family Medicine, Anesthesia, and Internal Medicine.
