Post Residency

Resident Outcomes:

Over the past five years, all 3rd-year residents finishing the program have been deemed Board Qualified at the time of completion of their three years of training. The program has a three-year cumulative board pass rate of 100%. Information about the board exam pass rates for all internal medicine programs is available online at the ABIM web site: www.abim.org. This site also supplies important information about the interpretation of board exam pass rates.

The program provides several activities to facilitate preparation for the exam by:

• Highly interactive board review sessions held in the second half of the academic year
• Based on material from the American College of Physicians Medical Knowledge Self Assessment Program
• An annual in-training service exam
• Monthly subspecialty quizzes
• Facilitating attendance of all residents in the PG3 year at a nationally conducted board review session by providing duty coverage and financial support
• Conducting annually two hour clinical exam skills exercise
• Conducting mini-cex's at patient's bedside, and
• Monthly reading reviews with the faculty advisor.

Graduates of the program have pursued fellowships in cardiology, hematology/oncology, nephrology, geriatrics, infectious disease, and rheumatology.
