Welcome to Houston and to Baylor College of Medicine’s Internal Medicine Residency Program!
At BCM, we feel very lucky to be surrounded by brilliant, kind and well-rounded residents, fellows and faculty who make training in internal medicine an incredibly positive and rewarding experience. We are also immensely grateful to care for and learn from a diverse patient population in Houston. There are innumerable opportunities at our four teaching hospitals: Ben Taub (our beloved county hospital), the Michael E. DeBakey Veterans Affairs Hospital (a massive VA and research powerhouse), MD Anderson Cancer Center (a world-renowned leader in cancer care and research), and Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center (our nationally ranked community-academic hospital). Our ambulatory and primary care clinics (Smith Clinic, VA, and McNair) provide a broad array of outpatient experiences as well. All of these sites exist in the Texas Medical Center, where opportunities for research and mentorship abound.
Whether your career goals involve primary care, hospital medicine, or subspecialty practice, our program provides the resources and support you need to succeed. As this year’s chief medical residents, we treasure time spent with BCM IM residents during daily Morning Reports at each hospital, rounds, and resident Noon Conference teaching. We can’t wait to meet and work with you!
Thank you for considering Baylor College of Medicine’s Internal Medicine Residency Program as the next step in your medical training. We would love to see you here next year!
Sincerely,
Parth Desai, Hannah Hoff, Blake Northrop, Eleanor Smith, and Tate Truly
