Dear Candidate,
I would like to personally introduce you to the HCA Healthcare HealthONE Internal Medicine Residency Program and invite you to explore the unique opportunities this program provides to all of our internal medicine residents.
Our leadership team is made up of myself (program director), Dr. Dmitriy Scherbak (associate program director), Dr. Greg Schlessinger, (associate program director) and Justine Holck (program coordinator). We feel diversity, equity and inclusion are critical to creating an environment of truly collaborative learning and teamwork. We are dedicated to ensuring equitable high-quality care for our patients, fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace for our colleagues, and developing culturally competent physicians.
With the support of HealthONE Denver hospital systems, our team is committed to maximizing your experience and providing the highest quality internal medicine training. When you graduate from this program, we will be proud to have you as a professional colleague.
We believe that every person deserves the highest quality of care possible and are committed to training physicians that have the knowledge and skills to provide the best care to each patient across all settings.
We provide a small-group atmosphere that is well suited to creating strong bonds between residents, faculty and patients. We emphasize personal growth and a culture of self-care through regularly scheduled meetings with faculty mentors to discuss and explore the issues that arise during the rigors of a resident’s training and personal life.
We will do our best to help you develop the knowledge base, interdisciplinary practice and skills that will allow you to succeed and thrive in your chosen profession.
As you can see, our residency program is committed to your success. Whatever your professional goals may be, you will complete your transformation from “student” to “physician” while forming friendships that will last a lifetime.
We appreciate your interest in our program and look forward to welcoming you to our Internal Medicine Residency.
Sincerely,
M. Elizabeth Hicks, MD
Program Director
