WELCOME!

Welcome to NYU, and thank you for your interest in our program.

Our tradition of excellence continues today with the growth and development of a world-class

academic pediatric and congenital heart center. Here you will find all the hallmarks of a large,

comprehensive training program. We see an unusually broad clinical spectrum in a medium-size

pediatric cardiac surgical program. We have committed, award-winning educators. We have an

array of scholarly opportunities not only within our Division, but also spanning across all of New

York University. And yet, we are small enough to be a tight-knit group, where our trainees are

never “lost in the crowd” and where one-on-one learning with a mentor is still the norm. We

believe, therefore, that we have the very best characteristics of both large and small programs.

We appreciate your taking this opportunity to learn more about us as we learn about you. We wish

you the very best for your future career.

BRIEF PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Pediatric Cardiology is a comprehensive and dynamic program within the Department of

Pediatrics at New York University School of Medicine and NYU Langone Medical Center. One

of the nation’s leading academic medical centers, NYU Langone Medical Center carries a long

and distinguished history of pediatric care, including pediatric cardiology care. Dr. Janet Baldwin,

one the Division’s first Directors, introduced pediatric cardiac catheterization to the New York

City region. Dr. Eugenie Doyle, who directed the Division over a 4-decade period, made important

observations on rheumatic fever and contributed to enormous advances in the medical and post-

surgical care of young patients as effective surgery for congenital heart defects was being

developed. Dr. Doyle worked closely with the prominent NYU cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Frank

Spencer, who trained under Dr. Alfred Blalock, developer of the “blue baby operation” that bears

his name. Dr. Michael Artman later expanded the scientific and clinical programs, while Dr.

Stephen Colvin pioneered techniques in mitral valve and congenital heart repair as well as

minimally-invasive surgical approaches. Dr. Achi Ludomirsky, widely recognized for his

contributions to pediatric heart imaging, and then Dr. Frank Cecchin, a renowned leader in

pediatric electrophysiology, were recruited to lead the Division of Pediatric Cardiology into a new

era of growth, expanding our services broadly throughout the New York Metro region.

Internationally recognized as an accomplished congenital heart surgeon, Dr. Ralph Mosca joined

the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery in 2009 as the Division Chief for Pediatric and Adult

Congenital Cardiac Surgery.

The Division of Pediatric Cardiology and Dr. Mosca have worked closely together to build a

world-class pediatric and adult congenital heart disease center at NYU. Since his recruitment in

2009, Dr. Mosca has performed all manner of corrective and palliative cardiac surgery, from

complex neonatal operations to challenging adult congenital cases. Performing close to 300

operations yearly now, Dr. Mosca enjoys one of New York State’s lowest surgical mortality rates.

NYU Langone Medical Center participates in the Gift of Life Program and in the Kids World Wide

Program, which provide cardiac diagnostic and surgical care to children from overseas. Dr. Sunil

Malhotra joined Dr. Mosca in 2010 as Assistant Professor in the Division of Pediatric and Adult

Congenital Cardiac Surgery. His clinical interests include neonatal cardiac surgery and the

surgical management of complex congenital cardiac defects. He serves as site director of the

pediatric cardiac surgery program at the Children’s Hospital of New Jersey at the Newark Beth

Israel Medical Center. The cardiothoracic surgery, pediatric cardiology, and pediatric critical care

teams collaborate closely on the care of our post-operative patients.

Outpatients are seen in the NYU Faculty Practice offices and in a large general Pediatric

Cardiology Clinic that is held weekly at Bellevue Hospital Center. Outpatient visits average more

than 6000 per year. In addition, Drs. Dan Halpern and Catherine Weinberg from the Division of

Cardiology (Department of Medicine) provide expertise in adult congenital cardiac care. The

Pediatric & Fetal Echocardiography Laboratory provides cardiac ultrasound imaging for inpatients

and outpatients at both NYU Langone Medical Center and Bellevue Hospital. The laboratory

performs over 7000 studies each year, including over 1500 fetal and 200 transesophageal studies.

We collaborate closely with the Department of Radiology and the Adult Echocardiography Lab.

The MRI/MRA and cardiac CT suites provide state-of-the-art facilities for cardiac imaging and

analysis, including 3-dimensional reconstruction. Stress treadmill exercise testing and stress

echocardiography testing are routinely performed by Pediatric Cardiology faculty as indicated.

The NYU Cardiopulmonary Exercise Laboratory provides additional comprehensive and

sophisticated analysis of cardiac and respiratory responses to exercise. The Pediatric Cardiac

11

Catheterization Laboratory performs over 200 procedures per year and provides diagnostic,

interventional and electrophysiology services to children and adolescents, as well as adults with

congenital heart disease.

The new Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU Langone is scheduled to open in 2018. A

uniquely child-friendly and family-oriented hospital-within-a-hospital, Hassenfeld Children’s

Hospital will be part of NYU Langone’s Helen L. and Martin S. Kimmel Pavilion. Integral to the

design of the pediatric hospital will be all private rooms, making it the only pediatric inpatient

facility in Manhattan to have this feature. This state-of-the-art facility is designed to create a

dedicated healing environment addressing the special medical, surgical, and psychological needs

of children.

The ACGME–accredited three-year fellowship training program currently has 5 fellows.

Fellows, residents, and medical students are taught at NYU Langone Medical Center’s Tisch

Hospital. Bellevue Hospital Center, the “crown jewel” of the NYC public hospital system and the

oldest public hospital in the US, serves as the major affiliate clinical and training site. The diversity

of our clinical caseload is reflected in New York City’s population, and immigrants who have not

received optimal care in their homelands provide challenging clinical problems rarely seen

elsewhere in the US. Our clinical program is supported by dedicated specialists in other

Departments/Divisions, including Cardiology (Cardiovascular Genetics and Adult Congenital

Heart Disease), Radiology (Cardiac and Pediatric Radiology), and Pediatric Critical Care. NYU’s

dedicated Congenital Cardiovascular Care Unit (CCVCU), one of the few of its kind in the nation,

provides further focus and training on the pre- and post-operative management of the sick cardiac

patient. Formal affiliations with major New York metro area hospitals, including Maimonides

Medical Center, NYU Winthrop Hospital, NYU Langone Health – Brooklyn, and the Children’s

Hospital of New Jersey, ensure the scope, breadth, and growth of our program.

The training program emphasizes knowledge and skills necessary for general pediatric cardiology

clinical practice or further training in a pediatric cardiology subspecialty. In addition to a diverse

patient population, numerous opportunities for didactic learning abound. Unparalleled

opportunities for clinical, basic science, and epidemiological research span across departments and

schools within New York University, the largest private university in the country. There are also

opportunities to pursue courses in higher education offered by NYU, such as Master’s degree

programs in public health and clinical investigation, and courses in medical statistics. Our fellows

also learn how to teach, and teach well they do: two in recent years have garnered the Fellow of

the Year, Award of Excellence in Teaching from the Pediatrics housestaff. We are justifiably

proud of our graduates, who have placed well throughout the country in clinical practice, further

subspecialty training positions, and in full-time faculty positions.

SELECTION

Fellows are selected to the program on the basis of past academic performance and potential for

success in the field of pediatric cardiology. Prior clinical, teaching, research and administrative

interests and experience are reviewed in conjunction with letters of recommendation by their

residency director and faculty mentors. An interview with the Program Director, attending staff

and current fellows is arranged for qualified applicants. This provides the applicant with an

opportunity to view our clinical facilities, ask questions about our educational opportunities and

philosophies, and express their goals and objectives for the training period and their careers. The

program adheres to the Equal Opportunity Employer (EOE) / Affirmative Action (AA) policy of

the NYU Langone Medical Center.

Applicants are accepted through the National Residency Matching Program and must apply

directly to the NRMP to participate (www.nrmp.org). Accepted applicants must adhere to the
