<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">David Myland Kaufman, Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, was graduated from the medical school of the University of Chicago and completed training in internal medicine and then neurology at Montefiore Medical Center / Albert Einstein College of Medicine (AECOM) hospitals.&nbsp; During his residency, Dr. Kaufman originated the nation-wide course, which he still directs, Clinical Neurology for Psychiatrists.&nbsp; More than 25,500 psychiatry residents and attendings have attended the course, which has served as the basis for his classic textbook, <em>Clinical Neurology for Psychiatrists</em>, (Elsevier) currently in its eighth edition and available in Italian, Japanese, and Spanish translations. He is also a co-editor of <em>Child and Adolescent Neurology for Psychiatrists</em> (Lippincott).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">Dr. Kaufman has also been a visiting professor at Ben Gurion University, Yale University, Pritzger / University of Chicago, and other American medical schools, and U.S. Naval Medical Centers, as well as a frequent lecturer at AECOM. He is a member of medical school's Leo M. Davidoff Society for excellence in teaching.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">In addition to his educational role at AECOM hospitals, Dr. Kaufman in partnership with Dr. Michael Swerdlow founded the quintessential neurology faculty practice&nbsp; K&amp;S&nbsp; at Montefiore Hospital. K&amp;S is the largest and longest surviving faculty practice in the institution. Drs. Kaufman and Swerdlow also give neurology consultation and attending rounds and supervise neurology clinics at Montefiore. In the clinics and faculty practice, Dr. Kaufman concentrates on the neurologic aspects of psychiatric illness and movement disorders. He works closely with the psychiatrists and, for botulinum treatment of certain dystonias, the neuromuscular group. Dr. Kaufman is the 2007 recipient of Montefiore's Staff and Alumni award for outstanding service.</span></p>

<p>Dr. Gomez moved to New York City from Bogota-Colombia after earning his medical degree from the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana. He completed his internship and residency in Orthopaedic Surgery at Columbia University where he obtained the prestigious <em>&ldquo;Rosamond Kane Award for Excellence in Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgery&rdquo;</em>. Following residency, Dr. Gomez graduated from the Pediatric Orthopaedic Fellowship at Harvard&rsquo;s Boston Children&rsquo;s Hospital. Then he went on to pursue a Spinal Surgery Fellowship at NYU/Hospital for Joint Diseases.</p>
<p>Dr. Gomez&rsquo; premier training enables him to provide superior care to children, adolescents and adults undergoing spinal surgery with the proficiency of a spine surgeon and the perspective of a pediatric orthopaedic surgeon.&nbsp; He has trained and applied cutting edge growth friendly techniques for young children with scoliosis such as &ldquo;MAGEC&rdquo; which is a magnetic growing rod that allows for growth of young children with early onset scoliosis avoiding repeat surgical procedures. He has significant interest in less invasive techniques such a scoliosis casting as well as the most complex deformity correction osteotomies for scoliosis both in children and adults. He treats a wide array of musculoskeletal pathology with special interest in the treatment of:</p>
<ul>
<li>Early Onset, Congenital and Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis</li>
<li>Spondylolisthesis</li>
<li>Pediatric Cervical Spine Pathology</li>
<li>Cerebral Palsy</li>
<li>Hip Dysplasia</li>
<li>Pediatric Fractures and Trauma</li>
</ul>
<p>Dr. Gomez has also volunteered to perform complex surgeries in developing countries. He worked with &ldquo;Butterfly Foundation&rdquo; in Dominican Republic and with &ldquo;Healing the Children&rdquo; in Colombia providing orthopedic surgical care and training to local orthopaedists. Being a native Spanish speaker, he is particularly attuned to the different cultural backgrounds of the city of New York. Dr. Gomez is an active member of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS), North American Spine Society (NASS) and the Pediatric Orthopedic Society of North America (POSNA).</p>
