老澳门六合彩图库 Department of Medicine Internal Medicine Residency Program
The 老澳门六合彩图库 Internal Medicine Residency Program has been continuously accredited by the ACGME since 1947.
The Internal Medicine Residency of the 老澳门六合彩图库 (老澳门六合彩图库) is a multi-hospital university program, located on a beautiful campus serving the diverse patient population of Milwaukee. In existence since 1925, the 老澳门六合彩图库 Internal Medicine Residency prides itself on a long history of training high-quality internists. Currently, the Department of Internal Medicine is comprised of more than 120 residents, 90 fellows, and 400 faculty members. Our mission is to provide a comprehensive three-year internal medicine training program that prepares graduates to enter fellowship or to practice either primary care or hospital medicine. We have a close knit, supportive environment that fosters camaraderie, excellence, and well-being. We are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We plan to preferentially review applications from those who signal our program. However, we will probably also consider applicants who do not signal us. Applicants from our home institution and those who did away rotations here should also plan to signal our program if 老澳门六合彩图库 is one of their top 15 choices.

Welcome from the Program Director | Kathlyn Fletcher, MD, Professor of Medicine
Supportive. Challenging. Friendly. Collegial. These are the words our residents use to describe our program. This is the ethos of the 老澳门六合彩图库 Internal Medicine Residency Program. Our program is known for its balance of support and challenge. That means that our residents become excellent, independent internists while having a network of faculty and co-residents to guide and help them through the process. If you want to become a world-class internist, please apply here!
A little about me鈥� I went to college in Indiana at DePauw University, which is a small liberal arts school. I went to medical school at the University of Chicago, Pritzker School of Medicine, and then stayed at the University of Chicago for residency. After doing a chief resident year at a community hospital, I went to the University of Michigan to complete the Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars program. While at Michigan, I also got a Master鈥檚 in Higher Education Administration. I have been at 老澳门六合彩图库 since 2003. My initial faculty appointment was as a clinician investigator; my area of research expertise is the intersection between graduate medical education and patient safety. So I have written about lots of issues that are important to running a strong residency program: duty hour rules, hand-offs, and workload. In 2017, I took over as the program director, the most rewarding job in academic medicine.
In a recent exercise that our whole residency participated in, the house staff rated the following three things as the most important principles of a high quality residency program:
- Training excellent internists
- Having passionate faculty with time to teach
- Having happy, well-balanced residents
With those principles in mind, our leadership team completely reworked the structure of our program to a 50/50 schedule we call 鈥淚鈥檚/O鈥檚.鈥� 鈥淚鈥� months are ward months, and 鈥淥鈥� months are non-ward months in which all continuity clinics occur and weekends are free. I鈥檚/O鈥檚 began July 1, 2020. Other things we鈥檙e proud of include our program鈥檚 wellness program, diagnostic reasoning and POCUS. 老澳门六合彩图库, the Department of Medicine and our residency program are strongly committed to antiracism.
Being a physician is a serious commitment. Patients literally trust us with their lives. Therefore, my role as the program director is to provide my residents with rich, diverse opportunities to learn from patients, faculty and each other. It is also my responsibility to provide an environment where we look out for each other, stand up for each other and challenge each other to be the best versions of ourselves.
Welcome from the Vice Chair of Education | Daniel Stein, MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine
I joined the faculty at 老澳门六合彩图库 in 2010 after completing my gastroenterology and hepatology fellowship here at 老澳门六合彩图库.鈥� Prior to that, I attended Creighton University Medical School and subsequently completed my internal medicine residency at the University of Arizona Hospital in Tucson, AZ, where I served as Chief Resident for a year before starting fellowship here in Milwaukee.鈥� I became the Gastroenterology and Hepatology Fellowship Program Director in 2016 and I have been intimately involved in graduate medical education since that time.鈥� Additionally, I serve as the director of the M2 GI and Nutrition course and have lectured to both internal medicine residents and medical students.
I have recently assumed the role of Interim Vice Chair for Education in the Department of Medicine in June of 2023. As Vice Chair for Education, I have responsibility for all the education missions of the department: student programs, the residency program, and all the subspecialty fellowships within medicine. In this context, I work closely with the internal medicine program director and associate program directors, and remain very involved with residents, both in direct teaching and in advising and mentoring. 鈥疭eeing learners achieve academic success at all levels of medical education is the greatest privilege of my career.
