Burke Rehabilitation Hospital

The winifred masterson burke rehabilitation hospital has been a longstanding leader in clinical care, research and innovation and is now home to a nationally recognized physical medicine and rehabilitation residency program. The accreditation council for graduate medical education (acgme)-approved program envisions being the future benchmark for all physical medicine and rehabilitation residency programs in the country. Burke's goal is to produce healthcare leaders known for innovation in all branches of physiatry. This is accomplished by rigorous training and the development of highly skilled clinical and academic physiatrists. Our residents receive unique training experience working directly with neurologists, physiatrists, rheumatologists, internists, cardiologists and pulmonologists on burke's rehabilitation units. They also have the opportunity to work closely with research scientists from the world-renowned burke medical research institute, which is located on burke's 61-acre campus in white plains. Burke aims to teach residents who will go on to utilize their training to improve patient care, advance the field of physical medicine and rehabilitation and enhance healthcare in the communities they serve. We offer a 3-year physical medicine and rehabilitation residency program affiliated with albert einstein college of medicine (aecom), a one-year brain injury medicine fellowship and a one-year sports medicine fellowship. Burke remains steadfast in its commitment to clinical research and innovation, recently launching several clinical trials and research initiatives, including transcranial magnetic stimulation. With a strong focus on discovery, burke's teams regularly publis in leading peer-reviewed journals and present at national conferences.
