Our Residents
Our wonderful residents make our program what it is!
The structure of our program allows our residents to spend time together and form tight-knit bonds - both in clinical settings and out.
Some celebrated social events include the Thanksgiving dinner and talent show, alumni + resident gatherings and career fairs, annual retreats for each PGY year, and a group PGY1 trip to the Society of General Internal Medicine (SGIM) Annual Meeting each year.
