Sanjey Gupta, MD, MBA

Member-at-Large Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell

Candidate Statement

Thank you for considering my application for the SAEM Board of Directors. I received my medical degree from New York Medical College and completed emergency medicine residency at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, NY. I am board-certified in emergency medicine (EM), addiction medicine, and am a fellow of the Academy of Wilderness Medicine. I serve as SVP and Executive Director of EM for Northwell Health, leading 25 emergency departments, including 5 GME sites. I am a Professor of EM at the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. With over 20 years as an SAEM member, I have chaired the Program Committee, Advanced Workshops, and served as Vice-Chair of the Faculty Development Committee.

My journey in academic medicine is anchored in teaching, people development, and the search for novel learning experiences. I cherish having helped found two EM residency programs and one EM-sponsored TY program in the NYC region. My greatest joy stems from watching the medical students, residents, and other learners I've mentored gain their own success. My pursuit of novel experiences has led me through an ECRIP research fellowship, department leadership roles, NY DMAT-4, addiction certification, and clinical operations expertise. SAEM has always been the home base for these endeavors.

As a Member-at-Large, my goal is to help evolve SAEM into the scholarly and networking organization that promotes success for all members. I aim to cultivate peer-relational programs, advance innovative educational content, and foster an environment where every member can learn, grow, and confidently envision leading-edge initiatives. Additionally, I will prioritize the development of leadership programming to prepare our future leaders for the organization's evolving needs and ensure SAEM's long-term sustainability. I am committed to leveraging my diverse experience to strengthen SAEM's mission and to empower our community.
