πŸŽ‰ Last week we celebrated our CA-3 class’s graduation from residency at the beautiful Glen Island Harbour Club, surrounded by co-residents, attendings, fellows, program leadership, and the family and friends who supported them along the way. So grateful for the awards, the laughs, and the memories made over these three years. As this incredible group heads off to their next chapters β€” some starting as attendings in private and academic practice, others continuing on to fellowship (a big shoutout to those staying with us at Montefiore for cardiac, pediatric, and regional anesthesia!) β€” it’s been an honor to be part of their training. Thank you to the entire Montefiore Einstein Anesthesia family for making this such a meaningful journey. Here’s to the next chapter for this talented group ✨

In addition to an incredible weekend at IARS in Montreal, we were equally inspired by the remarkable scholarship and collaboration showcased at the 2026 Society for Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology Annual Meeting. Proud to see outstanding work presented by medical students, residents, fellows, and faculty spanning complex obstetric anesthesia cases, multidisciplinary perioperative care, education, and innovation.

We are especially grateful to our Chief of Obstetric Anesthesia, Dr. Shamanta Reddy, for her unwavering support, mentorship, and dedication to fostering academic growth within our department. Congratulations to everyone who contributed to such thoughtful discussions and meaningful advancements in care for pregnant patients and their families.
