He completed three years of training in Internal Medicine at NYU Downtown Hospital and three more years of fellowship in Cardiovascular Diseases at Lenox Hill Hospital.  His drastic change in lifestyle and diet from his move to New York City soon reflected as irritable bowel syndrome and depression.
