Albany Med Health System Program
About This Program
Our hospital is the only academic center in the area allowing trainees to seen all patients requiring tertiary care referral with no competition. As an integrated adult and pediatric center, trainees will have extensive exposure to all ages for EEG studies (routine, continuous, epilepsy monitoring, etc.) throughout their training. This provides adult trainees with a level of education in younger patients, including preemies and neonates, to a degree rarely offered in any other programs.
