Interns rotate between medicine and surgery services with additional time spent in radiology, ophthalmology, and anesthesia. Other elective rotations may be available, including dentistry, exotics, dermatology and oncology.
Interns work closely with board certified clinicians in many specialties.
All interns will participate in after-hours emergency duty on a rotating basis and will remain in the hospital overnight when required for care of intensive care cases. The medical and surgical senior faculty are committed to providing consultation and back-up support for the house officers taking emergency duty. Participation in daily clinical rounds and scheduled house officer rounds is mandatory. From these experiences, the intern will gain knowledge and proficiency in presenting clinical case material. All interns will be required to prepare and present one seminar.
