Greetings from Mount Sinai! First we’d like to extend a warm welcome to our new intern class, Drs. Matthew Apicella, Alyssa Eily, Ilya Luschitsky, Brijesh Patel, Dominique Pinzon, Daniel Puebla and Christopher Wong—we are excited to see such promising talent!

Our residents continue to thrive in the “new normal” following COVID-19. Residents are engaging in weekly online didactics. Drs. Stephanie Fernandez and Fenil Patel presented posters in the virtual AAEM conference. We also look forward to hosting our colleagues in South Florida residencies during our annual Ultrasound Workshop in July.

As the academic year concludes, we extend a bittersweet farewell not only to our PGY-3 class, but to our core faculty member, Dr. Laurie Boge. We are lucky to have worked with such an outstanding clinician and value her dedication, guidance and friendship.

Lastly, in light of recent sobering events, our program has taken the time to reflect and open a dialogue regarding disparities within the medical field as well as society as a whole. We aim to look inward to confront our inherent biases and strive to support justice and equality for our colleagues and our patients.

From Mount Sinai, we wish you all a safe and successful new academic year. ■
