Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra-Northwell at Norwalk Hospital Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a fellow-free, community-based diagnostic radiology residency at Norwalk Hospital, now under the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell sponsoring institution, that places residents in a primary, hands-on role in image interpretation, procedures, and patient management from early in training. The program blends community clinical volume with academic infrastructure through longstanding Yale University affiliations (including neuroradiology electives) and external rotations for pediatric radiology at Maria Fareri Children's Hospital and nuclear medicine at UConn Medical Center. Board preparation is deeply structured, including sponsored AIRP attendance, physics and CORE board review courses, weekly tumor board leadership, and post-CORE mini-fellowships in Advanced Neuroimaging or Musculoskeletal MRI, reflecting a strong orientation toward fellowship placement at academic centers as well as private practice. Fourth-year elective time allows either advanced clinical rotations or dedicated research, indicating research is available but not central to program identity.
