Our program’s core purpose is to design and support an internal medicine residency program that develops board-certified physicians of the future who expertly and empathetically serve the communities in which they choose to practice. Our curriculum is designed to prepare physicians for success in whatever career path they choose.

Each academic year is divided into 10 five-week clinical education blocks. Four weeks of each block are dedicated to the assigned rotation, while one week is dedicated to ambulatory clinical experiences which includes a dedicated, assigned panel of patients within the program’s continuity clinic. This model allows residents to be fully present and immersed in the content of each rotation, instead of dividing attention between competing priorities.

More broadly, Crestwood Medical Center Internal Medicine residents receive a well-rounded approach to their three years of training with an inpatient-intense first year and inpatient/outpatient balanced second and third years of training. Our program curriculum includes a variety of subspecialty and elective opportunities so that residents actively participate in the design of a training experience that prepares them for their chosen career path and Board exam.
