Paul Augustus Collins, M.D., Class of 1913, an ophthalmologist and political activist, co-founded the Edgecombe Sanitarium, a private hospital established by and for Black physicians who were excluded from admitting privileges at other New York City hospitals. Dr. Collins was a founding member of the executive board of the Manhattan Central Medical Society (MCMS), the Manhattan affiliate chapter of the National Medical Association. He became the first Black physician to chair the Department of Ophthalmology at Harlem Hospital. Dr. Collins was also the first Black delegate to attend a Democratic National Convention. #NYMC #NYMCSOM #BHM #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth #americanhistory
Reminiscing on warmer weather and pre-COVID times, when the students could venture into New York City for a day trip! The proximity of campus to the city allows for the perfect balance of opportunity for breaks, without too much of the distraction associated with living in the bustling city. // #NYMCambassador post from Amanda S., NYMC School of Medicine // #medschool #MedEd
