Program Overview

Welcome to the St. Vincent Medical Center Internal Medicine Residency program. This is a 3-year residency with continued accreditation by the ACGME. We are currently approved to accept 12 residents per year. Our hospital has a long history of post-graduate medical education for physicians, and we started our Internal Medicine residency program in 2006. Our Internal Medicine residency program emphasizes comprehensive training in ambulatory and inpatient general Internal Medicine as well as its sub-specialties. Upon completion, residents will have the opportunity to work in areas of academic or community-based Internal Medicine practice or pursue training in various medicine sub-specialties. 

Our program will offer opportunities for growth while providing the required supervision and mentoring needed to become an excellent physician. You will have the opportunity to be completely responsible for the care of your patients while under direct supervision of senior residents and attending physicians. Additionally, you will serve as a mentor for medical students and your colleagues on a daily basis. You will have interactions with fellows in various sub-specialties such as cardiology, pulmonary and critical care, nephrology and infectious disease. You will be working alongside excellent clinical faculty who have been recognized both locally and nationally as the best in their respective fields.

Many of our faculty are actively involved in cutting-edge research in an array of medical disciplines. Our major research areas include infectious disease, respiratory disease and sleep medicine. Residents will have the opportunity to participate in ongoing research projects and contribute to the advancement of medical knowledge.

Internal Medicine Residency

At St. Vincent Charity Medical Center's Internal Medicine Residency program, we have a great tradition of excellence in residency training in Cleveland, Ohio. We are training internal medicine residents to be responsive to the present and prepared for the future.

Medicine today is exciting - new knowledge, new technology, new communication techniques. In addition, major social and economic forces continue to play a role in the healthcare arena. The challenge of providing excellent, up-to-date practical medical education as we provide high quality care to our patients is one that confronts academic centers everywhere.

At St. Vincent Charity Medical Center, we believe in a practical approach that combines an academics with a community-oriented view. We keep a national view, evidenced by our recent 5-year accreditation by the ACGME, while integrating the Core Competencies into our everyday teaching and patient care. Patient Care, Medical Knowledge and Professionalism have long been central to medical training.

We have placed major emphasis on Communication Skills for more than the past six years with a required Communication Skills Seminar each year of training. Patient-Based Learning and Improvement, read Evidence-Based Medicine and Quality Improvement, have been embraced and taught for the past five years. System-Based Practice has been part of our day life as we have continued to provide excellent patient care and resident training as our primary health system has been through major systems changes from not-for-profit to for-profit and back to not-for-profit status.

At St. Vincent Charity Medical Center we believe there is great value in a practical philosophy that combines an academic approach with a community-oriented view. We do not have all the answers to the challenges that face medical practitioners of the future. However, we are working on understanding both the questions and the answers. Our purpose is to develop women and men with the skills to solve present and future clinical and health care system problems for themselves, their patients and those who follow in their footsteps.
