The New York General Surgery Board Review Course is a comprehensive and intensive case-based review designed to help candidates complete preparation for the American Board of Surgery qualification certification and recertification examinations. The course will also prepare surgical residents for the senior level ABSITE examinations.

In addition to discussing the six competencies, the course focuses on ethical and legal issues such as do-not-resuscitate orders, operative consent problems, end-of-life and other ethical issues which have been subjects of recent questions. The expert faculty comprehensively updates the current state of the art in their respective fields.
