Columbia Campus (701 W 168th St, New York, NY 10032).

The Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons (VP&S), Weill Cornell, and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital are at the cutting edge of medical science and rehabilitation medicine. Led by our award-winning faculty, our Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Residency (PM&R) Program consistently ranks among the top ten rehabilitation programs on Doximity’s Residency Navigator. Our world-class facility offers an ideal setting for a diverse and comprehensive clinical experience.

Before its inception, our training program existed as two separate residency programs: Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center and New York Weill Cornell. The PM&R residency training program at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center was formed in 1948, pre-dating the creation of the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine in 1952. The following year, a pilot rehabilitation program was established at New York Weill Cornell, which received full accreditation in 1962. Six years later, Weill Cornell would institute the Division of Rehabilitation Medicine.
