What is the relationship between residents?
There is a large sense of camaraderie among the residents here at St. Joseph’s. Everyone looks out for each other, which adds to the already wonderful work environment here at St. Joseph’s Hospital. We also hang out outside of work frequently, exploring and experiencing all Syracuse has to offer.

What do you enjoy most about Syracuse/Central NY?
Many things! Syracuse is a hidden gem, it has plenty of places to explore inside and outside, great restaurants and filled with die-hard Syracuse Orange Fans. Syracuse is a short drive to the beautiful Finger Lakes, as well as the High Peaks Region in the Adirondacks. There are multiple festivals throughout the year and Syracuse games are always a good time, no matter the sport. There are newly renovated apartments throughout the city and living costs are on the lower side. It simply is a wonderful place to live!
