The combined Internal Medicine and Pediatrics Residency (or Med-Peds) is a four-year program jointly sponsored by the departments of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. As a resident, you receive broad, in-depth training to enhance your ability to provide skilled, compassionate care to adults and children.
Our faculty and residents represent a diverse range of backgrounds and beliefs, strengthening our ability to provide whole person care. We seek residents with the drive to meet the medical and spiritual needs of patients in underserved areas locally and globally.
Why Choose Us for Med-Peds

- Whole person care: Our faculty and residents embody the concept of whole person care, emphasizing the social, mental, spiritual, and physical components of each patient and family. We strive to emphasize whole person care for our residents as well.
