St. Joseph’s Hospital Internal Medicine Residency Program

Overview

The St. Joseph’s Hospital Internal Medicine Residency Program is a community-care focused training program that will provide much needed services to families throughout West Central Florida. At BayCare, we believe in the train to retain model. BayCare has many career opportunities available, and we want our residents to continue practicing in the Tampa Bay area, whether it is after residency or coming back after fellowship.

As a new program, there will be many opportunities to be innovative. We encourage our residents to think outside the box when it comes to medical education. Program leadership welcomes new ideas for program design, structure, and continuous improvement.

Our program will enable residents to work closely and directly with faculty. Residents will be assigned a mentor with whom they’ll work closely during their three years of training. However, we encourage residents to select additional advisors based on their needs and interests.

Our program leaders believe strongly in resident wellness. It’s necessary to care for ourselves in order to care for our patients. We’ll provide education and awareness on various topics through social events, conferences, online resources, and incentive programs.
