Our residency program offers strong teaching and mentorship within a modern, community hospital setting. We are home to 28 internal medicine residents and welcome 8 interns annually into our categorical program, along with 4 into our preliminary program.
The environment in which physicians train plays a significant role in shaping their careers. At Providence St. Vincent Medical Center (PSVMC), we emphasize compassion, collaboration, and innovation. Residents train in a hospital recognized for its commitment to high-value care, serving a diverse patient population from a broad geographic area. With one of the busiest emergency departments in Oregon, our residents benefit from a wide range of clinical experiences.
We are committed to providing a well-rounded curriculum and high-quality patient care. Our program is designed to offer a variety of learning opportunities and increasing levels of responsibility, preparing residents for a range of career paths. In inpatient medicine, we’ve developed four distinct ward teams, each with a unique educational focus. Our critical care rotation is a popular experience and has influenced many residents to pursue fellowships in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine.
The resident continuity clinic functions as a Medical Home, where residents care for their own panel of patients with support from a multidisciplinary team that includes faculty mentors, medical assistants, nurses, a behaviorist, a pharmacist, and a social worker. Our subspecialty rotations are led by knowledgeable faculty who are skilled at teaching both clinical expertise and the nuances of medical uncertainty. As a smaller program within a large hospital and health system, we’re able to offer personalized training experiences that support each resident’s professional goals.
We’ve included additional details about our program below. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions—we’d be happy to connect.
