I’m from Westchester but grew up partially in Maine. In undergrad I studied abroad in Wales and played volleyball all through schooling. I’ve probably seen every show on Netflix and HBO that’s worth watching but I also love hiking and being outside. My passion in life is food and am so happy to be practicing emergency medicine in the South Bronx

Rohan Datta
Medical Student Coordinator
Undergrad: NYIT
Med School: NYITCOM
Boston native and a diehard Boston sports fan, but been in New York for 10 years now and love it more each day. Spent most of my years in New York on Long Island for undergrad and med school. Couldn’t leave and wanted the experience to live in New York City and serve an underserved community, so I came to work at Lincoln in the Bronx. Being the busiest ER in NYC and one of the busiest in the country, Lincoln is the perfect balance of academics and exposure to all types of pathology.
Interests: Traveling, dancing (love going to workshops in NYC), both watching and playing all sports (favorite is basketball), cooking, exploring NYC and trying new kinds of foods, binge watching Netflix, spending quality time with my family in Boston.

Med School: St. George’s University School of Medicine
Born and raised in California. Sunshine, beach, food, rosé, and good vibes only! Ended up in New York on a last minute offer to do a preliminary surgery residency at The Brooklyn Hospital Center in 2017. Quickly fell in love with NY and reapplied to emergency medicine with the hope of staying in NYC. Residency at Lincoln is an honor; to train at one of the country’s busiest ER’s and serve largely underrepresented communities. Interests in medicine include global health and disaster relief, LGBTQ advocacy, and HIV prevention.

From Westfield, NJ. Decided to pursue medicine during college while working as an EMT. Initially was in love of the idea of being oncologist after spending two years in a breast cancer research lab, but quickly fell back in love with emergency medicine during elective rotations in medical school.
Outside interests include: writing & playing live music (currently writing for and playing guitar in the band Cloud Break), staying up-to-date with fitness & nutrition literature, skiing, enjoying live entertainment in NYC

Chi-costal. Medical interests include emergency medicine, wellness, global health, LGBT health, and HIV care. Find me biking in Central Park, dropping in at a Pilates class, attending a cabaret, enjoying a rooftop, or traveling the world. I love Lincoln for the people - my co-residents, my attendings, and most important, my patients.

Tri-state area local. Constantly taking advantage of what NYC has to offer: Central park in the summer, bike rides through the 5 boroughs, every food known to man, live music, comedy and art. Love all sorts of competition to a pick up basketball game in Harlem to ping-pong in Bryant Park. Always looking for my next travel/hiking destination.
