Welcome from our Program Director
Nicholas Connors, MD
Trident Medical Center has fully embraced GME training, and the Emergency Medicine program continues to grow and mature. We have been fortunate to recruit impressive and industrious residents who are working with an extremely dedicated faculty to mold this program into a premier site for those who foresee a career in community emergency medicine. There's still quite a bit of building to be done and for students with an interest in a future role as an administrator or curriculum designer, opportunities abound to be involved in the assessment and enhancement of our program.
Trident EM residents enjoy two additional major benefits. First, as an HCA-sponsored program, we tap into the resources and experience of 15 emergency medicine residency programs around the country, expert guidance on GME and accreditation, and future employment opportunities nationwide. Next, is the unrivaled allure of Charleston. Our residents delight in their proximity to the award-winning city, its outsized cultural offerings, gorgeous beaches, and year-round warmth. For years, the South Carolina Lowcountry has attracted families and developed at an enormous rate. Trident residents enjoy all that the region offers while being part of a rigorous community-centered training program. We are delighted with what we have accomplished so far and look forward to bringing this program to its full potential in the coming years.
