Amy B. Bass, MD

As an emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to delivering fast-paced, team-oriented care. My passion for emergency medicine stems from my early experiences as a medical scribe, where I was introduced to the field’s dynamic environment and the opportunity to assist individuals in their time of need. I am driven by the demands of quick decision-making and effective teamwork, which are essential in delivering high-quality emergency care.

I have extensive training in trauma and medical resuscitation, as well as the use of ultrasound in acute care settings. My residency at Bellevue has equipped me with the skills to deliver care in a variety of settings, from tertiary care centers to remote community hospitals. With many years of experience, I am adept at managing a wide range of acute conditions and emergencies, ensuring that my patients receive the best possible care.

Throughout my career, I have been involved in disaster response and international relief work, which has allowed me to utilize my skills in diverse and resource-limited environments. My work in Tanzania, India, and Haiti has been particularly rewarding, as I have been able to provide critical care and nutrition counseling to patients in need.

The intensity and unpredictability of emergency medicine, combined with the opportunity to work alongside a dedicated team of healthcare professionals, continue to inspire me every day. Additionally, I am committed to medical education and currently serve as the assistant director of emergency undergraduate medical education, where I train residents and medical students to become the next generation of emergency medicine providers.
