Brandon Hospital Internal Medicine Program - current residents

Program overview

Our robust didactic curriculum offers a broad array of conferences, team-based interactive activities, and simulation-based training across the full spectrum of medical specialties. It also includes monthly administrative reports to help our trainees understand the business side of medicine and provide high-quality, cost-effective care, monthly Simulation labs which include Point of Care Ultrasound training to help our trainees with procedural skills, monthly journal club which helps our trainees excel in critical appraisal of evidence and literature review , and monthly Morbidity and Mortality sessions which help our trainees learn by reflecting. Our regular morning reports and board review sessions are going to be jointly directed by faculty and residents to enhance our residents' pattern recognition skills. Our didactics session and scholarly activities are supervised by faculty, and each resident is assigned a self-selected faculty mentor to ensure that you master the art and science of medicine.
We believe that it's important to provide a well-balanced education across the inpatient and outpatient settings. We also believe that continuity of care is key for the optimal education of our residents. Our 4+1 scheduling system is structured so that residents attend 1 week of uninterrupted clinic after each 4-week block. This aims at ensuring continuity of care and the well-being of our resident doctors. In addition to in-house fellowship programs, we offer a variety of different electives which offers ample opportunity for subspecialty training and scholarly activities for each of our residents.

We are focused on fostering a culture of inclusion, intellectual curiosity, and autonomy. Our goal is to help trainees find their true purpose and to prepare them to excel in any career path they choose. This includes careers in leadership, teaching, research, and subspecialty fellowship training.
