Scott & White Internal Medicine Residency Program
Central Texas patient population includes a rapidly growing area of more than 2,000,000 people, and we serve as a tertiary referral center for the Southwestern United States. The Scott & White system has more than 1.8 million outpatient visits, 57,000 hospital discharges and 51,000 surgical procedures per year. This allows for an immense diversity of pathologic conditions during your three years of training.
Ambulatory Care
Designed to train future primary care physicians and subspecialty physicians who will spend a significant amount of time practicing in the office setting and treating chronic diseases.
Curriculum
Our program will equip you with the knowledge and skills you need to care for patients as a general internist or as a fellow in any competitive fellowship program.
