2006-2007 Internal Medicine Residents

Welcome

We are pleased that you are interested in our residency program. We feel that our program does an excellent job of preparing our trainees to become well-rounded general internists, as well as providing the residents with the tools needed to pursue subspecialty training, enter careers in academic medicine, or provide care as a hospitalist.

Approximately 50% of our residents continue onto subspecialty training once they have completed their internal medicine residency. Our residency program is committed to providing a strong foundation for general internal medicine, which has been evidenced by our 100% board pass rate on the Internal Medicine board examination (ABIM) since 1998!

Our program is unique in its commitment to ambulatory care and the opportunity for residents to maintain continuity with patients, in a clinic that is operated by the residents. Please navigate through the website for more information, and don’t hesitate to call or email us if you would like more information. We look forward to hearing from you soon, as you embark upon the next stage of your medical education.
