Description
New York City Health + Hospitals | Queens, in affiliation with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, invites applications for a full-time Attending Faculty Gastroenterologist to join our growing, mission-driven division in the heart of Queens.
This is a unique opportunity for early-career and recently trained gastroenterologists seeking the ideal balance of clinical autonomy, academic engagement, and meaningful community impact. As part of the largest public health system in the country and an academic affiliate of Mount Sinai, you will practice high-quality, evidence-based gastroenterology in a diverse, high-volume setting—while helping shape the next generation of physicians.
Responsibilities
You will provide comprehensive gastroenterology care across both inpatient and outpatient settings, working in a modern, fully equipped endoscopy suite with access to the latest technology. Our patient population is clinically diverse and medically complex, offering broad procedural exposure and the opportunity to refine and expand your skill set.
The position includes close collaboration with The Cancer Center of Excellence at NYC H+H | Queens, offering opportunities to participate in multidisciplinary oncologic care, quality initiatives, and program development.
As a core faculty member, you will play an active role in teaching within our ACGME-accredited Internal Medicine Residency Program, mentoring residents and medical students from NYIT COM, St. George’s University, and CUNY School of Medicine.

We are especially interested in candidates who are excited to:
- Develop a niche interest or clinical focus area within a supportive academic environment
- Participate in quality improvement, patient safety, and system-based innovation
- Engage in scholarly activity, case reports, clinical research, or curriculum development
- Grow as an educator with mentorship and academic advancement opportunities
This role offers the best of both worlds: the pace and procedural breadth of community practice combined with the teaching, mentorship, and academic affiliation of a major university system—all within one of the most vibrant and diverse boroughs of New York City.
Ideal for motivated gastroenterologists who want to build a meaningful career early, contribute to an academic mission, and make a tangible difference in an underserved community.
