Applications for PG-II positions are welcomed. Interviews will be scheduled after receipt of completed applications and are by appointment only. Academic excellence, commitment to under-served and minority populations, ability to work hard, and desire to learn are all important factors. Applications by minorities and women are encouraged. An interview is strongly recommended, but is not required, particularly if financial and distance constraints make it impractical.
Interviews are by invitation after an application is received.
The Department of Medicine has been affiliated with the University of California-San Francisco for over fifteen years. On average, we have four to five international medical graduates out of a total of 50 Residents in the program. Nearly all are Americans who've attended St. George's University in Grenada. After passing the Boards, about two-thirds begin private practice or join an HMO, group, or other public arrangement. Approximately one-third of our graduates go on to Fellowship training in a subspecialty of Medicine.
