Special Features & Unique Opportunities
Our smaller class sizes allow more personalized approach by faculty to resident education. We are also starting a POCUS curriculum in 2026-2027 led by two CHEST-trained senior residents (training awarded based on merit application) Our program's mission is to train the most competent general internists possible while still allowing for exploration of specialty fields, particularly in those fields that we have in-house fellowships for (Pulm, Cards, ID, Endo, Heme-Onc).
