Our Residents

We believe that the best patient care is provided by residents who have balanced and satisfying lives. Our department looks for ways to support our residents in this pursuit. We have regularly scheduled department sponsored events throughout the year and residents have informal gatherings at each others' homes, local bars, restaurants and area attractions on a regular basis. One of the perks of attending residency in a city like Rochester is the wide variety of events and activities that are at your fingertips. Our residents' interests range from ballroom dancing to fantasy football to hiking. To learn more about our residents, check out our current residents' profiles.

Rochester has many of the benefits of a small urban center. It is rated the "best minor league sports city" in the U.S. It is home to the historic Susan B. Anthony House, the acclaimed Garth Fagan Dance Troupe, and the infamous "Garbage Plate" at Nick Tahou's no-frills eatery. Rochester has the world's largest concentration of lilacs. It offers some of the most appealing and affordable housing in the country—not to mention an extensive and highly regarded parks system, and five nationally ranked high schools. It is a regular stop on both the LPGA and Nationwide golf circuits, and an occasional stop for the U.S. Open, PGA Championship, and Ryder Cup.

Born as a mill town on the Genesee River, Rochester boosted to boomtown status with the opening of the Erie Canal, and brought to the pinnacle of modernity and innovation by its entrepreneurial patriarch George Eastman, Rochester provides a richness and diversity of life that's hard to find outside of the country's largest cities. Its lively "knowledge economy" draws its strength from Eastman Kodak, Bausch & Lomb, Xerox, growing telecommunications, "biotech" and IT sectors and other technology-driven enterprises located here. It hosts the renowned Eastman School of Music, Rochester Institute of Technology, and the University of Rochester

Rochester is breaking the top five in the nation in a different type of category. Realtor.com and Yelp rated Rochester as the fifth most hipster.
