Growing together.

Our program is committed to bringing together a group of highly accomplished and diverse individuals and training them in an environment that emphasizes collegiality, clinical excellence and academic development. The academic and research opportunities at Brigham and Women’s and Massachusetts General Hospitals, coupled with our faculty’s dedication to mentorship, provides outstanding support to our residents in their personal and professional growth.

Our residents have a broad diversity of backgrounds, bringing an invaluable breath of experiences to our program’s pursuit of excellence. Many come with a previous history of accomplishment in varied professional activities both within the U.S. and internationally including public health, languages, critical care, public policy, finance, international health, basic science, medical education, and the arts, just to name a few.

Our residents, along with their significant others, form a tightly-knit community outside of the hospitals that is maintained through residency and beyond. Emotional and physical health is highly valued in our program and we place a strong emphasis on a well balanced life. This is achieved, in part, by scheduling social events for resident and faculty members to interact in a less formal atmosphere. Some of these events include our annual residency retreat, summer picnic, barbecues, and of course, graduation.
