Internal Medicine Residency

The ACGME accredited Internal Medicine Residency Program is vigorous and well respected, and is nationally recognized for a unique blend of consistency and innovation. Training is conducted at the University Hospital, LDS Hospital and the Salt Lake City VA Medical Center. As a group, graduates from this program score in the upper 10% on the American Board of Internal Medicine Certifying Exam. In addition, the Department maintains a full-range of subspecialty fellowship training programs in clinical disciplines.

Medicine-Pediatrics Residency

This 4-year Medicine-Pediatric Residency Program is designed to provide a comprehensive educational experience in both Internal Medicine and Pediatrics to the effective practice of these two disciplines. This ACGME accredited program is one of only a few combined Internal Medicine and Pediatrics Programs in the western United States. Graduates will be able to function as generalists in practice or in academic settings, but they will also be sufficiently prepared to enter fellowship training in areas shared by the two disciplines. This program’s structure allows adequate time to meet subspecialty and core requirements while allowing each resident the freedom to formulate their schedule to suit their individual needs and career goals.
