An Unparalleled Opportunity in Emergency Medicine

Residents outside wearing safety gear

Our Emergency Medicine residency offers unparalleled opportunities and world-class resources for those eager to train at the forefront of the field. This is more than just a training program—it’s an immersive experience that prepares you to handle anything, anytime, anywhere.

Few medical centers in the world can provide the unique learning experiences available here, and we consider it a privilege to offer this level of training to our future students and residents.

At the heart of our program is a philosophy of mutual respect and collaboration. We don’t just train residents; we invest in them. Our mission is to serve and support your growth as much as you serve the needs of our patients and community.

We seek highly driven, self-motivated individuals who recognize the immense opportunities our program provides. If you have a passion for a particular area within Emergency Medicine, we’ll empower you to explore, master, and share that expertise with your colleagues.

If you’re looking for a residency that will challenge, inspire, and shape you into a confident, competent, and compassionate physician, we encourage you to give us a look. This program is new, but for those with the vision and courage to take ownership of their training, it presents an extraordinary chance to define your own path in Emergency Medicine.

If you need something different, tell us. We adapt—because that’s what great ER doctors do. 

Our mission is simple:
To train Emergency Medicine physicians who are ready for anything. Critical cases, rare diagnoses, high-pressure scenarios—our residents graduate with the skills, confidence, and resourcefulness to handle it all.
