The combined Med-Peds Program curriculum has been carefully planned to provide the structured educational and clinical experiences necessary for residents to develop clinical competency in inpatient, outpatient, and subspecialty areas of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics over the course of 48 months.
Residents begin with core inpatient and outpatient rotations and are given progressive responsibility and graduated autonomy over the 48 months of residency. Residents complete 24 months of training in each specialty.
The initial blocks of the first year take place in clinical areas that are heavily supervised (i.e., inpatient wards, ambulatory clinics, ICU, emergency departments), providing a rich exposure to fundamental elements of internal medicine and pediatric care. Continuity clinics begin in the first month of training and are maintained for the duration of the program.
Our residents provide care for a large volume of diverse patients, and this provides the rich clinical experience that is fundamental in making them incredibly competent physicians ready for unsupervised practice at the completion of their training.
