Sana Maheshwari, MD

As an emergency medicine physician at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing compassionate care to patients from diverse backgrounds during their most vulnerable moments. My philosophy of care revolves around the principles of rapport, resuscitation, and recovery, ensuring that each patient receives the highest level of attention and support. I thrive in the collaborative environment of the emergency department, where grit and humanity intersect to overcome the obstacles of healthcare in society.

My extensive training at NYU Langone/Bellevue Hospital Center, where I served as chief resident, has equipped me with the skills necessary for fast-paced decision-making in high-pressure situations. With years of experience in the field, I am committed to fostering a culture of excellence, innovation, and high-quality equitable care.

In addition to caring for patients, I am passionate about mentoring residents and women in medicine, creating supportive opportunities for them to develop critical skills and navigate unpredictable circumstances. At NYU Langone, I am honored to share my passion for emergency care and contribute to the growth of the next generation of healthcare providers.

Throughout my career, I have also been deeply involved in international health, traveling to resource-limited settings such as Tanzania, Haiti, and India on a Fulbright scholarship. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how emergency departments can serve as catalysts for systemic change, providing immediate critical care while also addressing broader health disparities.
