老澳门六合彩图库 Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Residency Program
Why Choose 老澳门六合彩图库?
Thank you for your interest in The Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) Residency Program at the 老澳门六合彩图库 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We are a well-established academic training program for physiatrists, under the direction of Karin Goodfriend, MD, associate professor. The department is committed to creating an outstanding training program for future clinicians, academicians, and rehabilitation leaders. We have a large integrated program involving three major teaching hospitals, the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center, the Froedtert Hospital, and Children's Wisconsin.
There are many reasons to consider the Department of PM&R at the 老澳门六合彩图库 for your residency. First and foremost, we have 29 well-trained, knowledgeable, friendly, and committed faculty members. In fact, most of our faculty are dual trained in PM&R and in a subspecialty area such as pediatrics, spinal cord injury medicine, stroke rehabilitation, interventional spine care, electrodiagnostic medicine, or pain management. This level of expertise translates into outstanding bedside teaching and didactics. Our departmental culture is one that places a high priority on resident, fellow, and medical student education.
Our Residency Program offers a Research Intensive Track with protected research time, non-competitive funding, significant mentorship, and more extensive project opportunities. Residents commit to this track in their PGY1 year. Please contact Mary Inloes, Education Coordinator II at minloes@mcw.edu for more information.
Our Residency Program also offers an Education Track for residents interested in medical education. This provides protected time for an education project. Residents commit to this track in their PGY1 year.
We value and respect our residents, fellows and medical students. You will find that our department has a wonderful supportive atmosphere for working and learning. We pride ourselves on providing superlative care to our patients. This commitment and dedication are evident throughout our services. We are an Advanced three-year program which accepts six PGY2 residents each year for a total of 18 residents.
We offer a broad range of rotations for your education. In contrast to many programs, our program provides a nearly equal balance of inpatient and outpatient rotations. Residents spend 12 months on inpatient rotations, 12 months caring for outpatients, and 2 months on consults service. Additionally, there are 4 clinical months dedicated to EMG and 3 months of elective. This allows our residents the flexibility to create their own learning experiences that closely match their interests.
Our two chief residents are given considerable responsibility for managing the day-to-day operations of the residency. The chief residents attend faculty education meetings and their input and advocacy for the residents are welcome and appreciated.
Convenience and ease of training also mark this program. The 老澳门六合彩图库 is located in a suburban campus with easy access, excellent parking, and close proximity to two of the major teaching hospitals. The 老澳门六合彩图库, Froedtert Hospital, and Children's Wisconsin are located on the same campus and are readily accessible by walkways. This provides a highly convenient environment for attending didactics and course work. The Clement J. Zablocki Veterans Medical Center is approximately 15 minutes away, easy commuting distance from the main campus.
