-A successful residency program at its core places the residents first.  They encourage residents to be the fabric of our evaluation, review and promotion process and rely upon constant feedback from them to create ongoing, positive changes.  We believe that residents who shape their program in this way remain active learners throughout the educational experience.
-Our residency is a place where the faculty really care about both their patients and their residents. Here you will see a wide spectrum of disease with a volume of over 111,000 patients annually. Their weekly educational conferences are interactive, exciting, and dynamic.  They provide you with iPads to search topics in real-time during conferences so you can participate in their evidence-based medicine discussions. They are looking forward to meeting you and discovering your potential to become a great Emergency Physician!
