Department of Surgery Golf and Tennis Tournament
The Sixth Annual Golf & Tennis Tournament was held at Pelham Country Club on September 25, 2007. The annual fundraiser to raise money for surgical education and research generated nearly $90,000 in revenue. Thirteen sponsors, three patrons and six friends of the Department of Surgery, along with the 60 people attending the event, helped make this the most successful fundraiser ever for the surgical education fund. The monies raised benefit programs in surgical education and research, fund our Surgical Anatomy Course, and enable residents to participate in major conferences across the country. Research is an important aspect and focus of our residency training program. Many of our residents attend professional conferences, give presentations and author publications during their residency. In the academic year 2006-7, residents gave 24 presentations and published 34 papers.
Department of Surgery meets Grey's Anatomy
Department of Surgery residents were treated to complimentary scrubs from the creators of the popular television show "Grey's Anatomy." The gift was given in recognition of the important work our residents do in providing the highest quality, most compassionate patient care.
