Message From the Program Director
On behalf of the chair, the faculty, house and administrative staff, I would like to welcome you to the Radiology Residency Program at Baylor College of Medicine. We are based in the Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world. Our 48 residents rotate through many world-renowned public and private teaching hospitals. They work with a diverse group of outstanding fellowship-trained radiologists. We have worked hard to create a hands-on, balanced educational experience and will continue to perfect it.
As our program adapts to changes to our specialty, to certification and to healthcare in the United States, resident input has been critical. Together, faculty and residents have built a strong educational curriculum. We are committed to training outstanding radiologists who obtain the fellowship of their choice and become leaders in our specialty.
This year, we are offering 12 advanced PGY-2 positions, including four positions in our ESIR pathway, through the National Residency Matching Program. Please explore this website and learn more about our program. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact Becky Baxter at beckyb@bcm.edu. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram.
Sincerely,
Pedro Diaz-Marchan, M.D.
