PMR Residency

The Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PMR) Residency at SUNY Upstate Medical University provides excellent training in physiatry, preparing residents for future fellowships and careers. Strengths of the academic program include broad clinical experiences, specialization in Pediatrics, Pain Management, Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), Musculoskeletal Outpatient, and Prosthetics and Orthotics, and research opportunities and support.
