Elective in Medical Genetics and Metabolic Diseases
This elective is a subspecialty of pediatrics.
It provides
excellent exposure to many rare genetic and metabolic
diseases such as phenylketonuria, galactosemia, Gaucher’s
disease, neurofibromatosis, fragile X syndrome and Down
Syndrome. The Inherited Metabolic Disease Center is a New
York State recognised referral center for Newborn Screening
in the Lower Hudson Valley Region, serving the region directly
north of New York City. Babies with positive screening tests
for the metabolic disorders are referred directly to the Center
for further evaluation. Students have the opportunity to
observe all aspects of the clinical service. They are present at
the clinical consultations during both the history taking and
physical examination. They may also attend prenatal
consultations with the genetic counselors. Students attend all
staff meetings and consults both at Westchester Medical
Center and at other hospitals throughout the Region.
This elective is mainly clinically oriented. Based on the
experience of those who have done this elective, having
completed some work, either a medical school rotation or a
previous elective in pediatrics, prior to starting this elective
will be very helpful. A thorough revision of the biochemical
pathways in advance will also be extremely helpful! To gain
the most out of this elective, having access to a car is
essential for travelling to the various hospitals. The daily
schedule can range anywhere from 9am to 9pm but on
average ranges from 10am to 6pm Monday to Friday.
Students do not go On-Call.
The division staff are extremely friendly and very willing to
teach. This elective would no doubt be a superb choice for
any student, but especially for those who wish to go into
pediatrics, as it provides a wide exposure to all age groups
within pediatrics.
Please give my email and tel no to TCD med students who are
looking for elective here in the US. I'm currently associated
with
