Special Features
We pride ourselves on passion, education and patient care. Residents are supported with a cohesive resident and faculty team, engaged PD and Coordinator, strong Chiefs, as well as an integrated GME Office. Our undeserved and acutely sick patient population and leadership opportunities contribute to our graduates excelling in any clinical setting and frequently take on leadership position after graduating. We have no overnight call or night float. Look for us on Instagram.
