Department of Internal Medicine Residency Mission
Thank you for your interest in the University of Utah Internal Medicine Training Program. The Department of Internal Medicine enjoys a strong national academic reputation which began with our first Department Chairman, Maxwell Wintrobe, MD and continues today under the leadership of John M. Inadomi, MD. Our department is committed to excellence in patient care, education, and research. Our goals are:
- To cultivate an environment of belonging that encompasses our trainees, faculty, and patients
- To provide exceptional, high quality, varied clinical experiences
- To allow for individualized education plans and experiences
- To provide support and mentorship to help you reach your professional goals
- To engage residents in leadership and allow them to lead
The University of Utah offers rich clinical and research opportunities. Our internal medicine training program emphasizes intensive clinical experiences in a collegial atmosphere. We recruit broadly from all over the country to bring together an exceptional group of physicians. Our house staff have distinct backgrounds, professional interests, outside interests, and ultimate career goals but all value teamwork, professionalism, and all have strong clinical and academic potential.
The leadership of the program is genuinely interested in each resident as an individual and our program is designed to increase autonomy and flexibility in training progressively over the three years. Our goal is to have each resident reach their own professional goals. Our distinguishing feature in Utah is a unique esprit de corps among the residents, faculty, and medical students which transfers between departments as well. We work hard to maintain a team approach to the patient and promote continuity of care. We have fully integrated milestones into our assessments to provide residents with more meaningful feedback. We have no citations from the ACGME.
We are very excited to meet you and introduce our program and our unique location nestled in the foothills of the Wasatch range of the Rocky Mountains. We are confident you will leave this program ranked among the very best physicians in America.
