Amil H. Badoolah, MD

As an emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing compassionate and immediate care to patients during their most vulnerable moments. My philosophy of care centers on the belief that we are here to help, no matter the time or circumstance. I find immense fulfillment in knowing that I can make a difference, big or small, in a person’s life by the end of each shift.

I specialize in emergency medicine, a field that allows me to address a wide range of urgent health issues, from reassuring a patient to performing life-saving procedures. With extensive training and years of experience, I am equipped to handle any emergent procedure that comes through our doors. My background in anthropology, which explores the cultural, social, physical, linguistic, and archeological aspects of humanity, enriches my approach to medicine by providing a holistic understanding of what it means to be human.

Throughout my career, I have been committed to proactive healthcare engagement. I believe in the importance of patient research and value independent, third-party reviews. My role in emergency medicine involves a dynamic range of responsibilities, from immediate interventions to long-term patient care strategies, ensuring that every patient receives the best possible treatment.

My journey into medicine was inspired by my fascination with humanity and the desire to help people survive and thrive. Emergency medicine, in particular, appealed to me because it allows for immediate intervention at critical moments. This field offers a unique blend of challenges and rewards, and I am passionate about the opportunity to make a tangible impact on patients’ lives.

I completed my medical education with a focus on emergency medicine, driven by a deep-seated interest in the intersection of human culture and healthcare. My training has equipped me with the skills and knowledge necessary to provide top-tier emergency care, and my affiliation with NYU Langone ensures that my patients benefit from coordinated, seamless care within a leading health system.
