Information Page

Dr. Shine grew up in Manhattan and moved to Ireland in 1965 after graduating from the Bronx High School of Science. He returned ten years later with a masters in English literature to attend medical school at Georgetown University School of Medicine. As a house officer at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center, Dr. Shine became interested in pharmacology, spending the next two years as a fellow at Harvard Medical School working in the pharmacology of substance abuse and in toxicology. He returned to New York as medical director of Montefiore Medical Center’s Drug Abuse Treatment Program just as the AIDS epidemic began. During the next fifteen years Dr. Shine increasingly devoted his time to general internal medicine and administration in New York’s South Bronx He founded a division of general internal medicine at Bronx-Lebanon Hospital Center and served as Chief of Medicine at Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center. His research increasingly came to deal with hospital systems, quality, and the uses of medical data.

Dr. Shine arrived at NYU as Chief of the Medical Service in 2005 with the aim of improving systems, increasing the role of Tisch Hospital in the education of residents and fellows, and creating a data-driven agenda for decision making and quality improvement. His main teaching interests are bedside physical diagnosis and the interpretation of medical literature. Dr. Shine lives with his wife and son by the ocean in New Jersey, where he runs on the beach and reads Anglo Saxon (and other) poetry.
