Required on-site seminars include Teaching Residents to Teach in the fall and Teaching Residents to Lead in the spring. Our program also includes an endocrinology fellowship, and most others are available within the overall Texas Tech system. Critical care medicine education and training is particularly strong here. We have had excellent success in our residents' progressing to this fellowship and others of their choice.
