Program Overview
Welcome and thank you for taking the time to
inquire about our Internal Medicine Housestaff Training Program.
Affiliated with the University of Florida, the Internal Medicine
Residency Program is under the direct supervision of the Department of
Medicine. Residents in our program spend time encountering a very
diverse population of patients at our 2 affiliated teaching hospitals;
Shands Hospital and the Malcom Randall VA Medical Center. We offer a
full 3-year, ACGME-accredited program in Internal Medicine.
The primary goal of our residency program is to train compassionate, dedicated, and well-skilled general internists of the future. In addition, the program allows residents interested in either basic science or clinical research to expand their skills and knowledge. The overall atmosphere here at the University of Florida breeds camaraderie, learning, and dedication toward each other and the art of Internal Medicine. For the past 2 years, the Department of Medicine has received the “Golden Apple Award” for excellent teaching as determined by the senior medical student class.
