Medical College of Wisconsin Affiliated Hospitals Program

The Medical College of Wisconsin Emergency Medicine Residency program is a three-year program that is fully accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). The program aims to train outstanding emergency physicians who acquire essential knowledge, administrative skills, become educators, and are familiar with essential aspects of research and prehospital care. Residents have the opportunity to train at Froedtert Hospital, which is the only Level 1 trauma center in southeastern Wisconsin, and Children's Wisconsin, which is one of the top-ranked Pediatric Emergency Departments in the United States.

Residents undergo a variety of rotations, including trauma, pediatric emergency medicine, medical and surgical ICUs, anesthesia, toxicology, and more. Additional experiences include emergency medical services (EMS) rotations, flight critical care, and a strong focus on point-of-care ultrasound. The residents also have exposure to a diverse patient population from urban and suburban areas.

Residents can access benefits such as Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) courses, annual conferences, resident retreats, a Continuing Medical Education (CME) fund, provided memberships to various organizations, and more.

The Medical College of Wisconsin does not sponsor visas for foreign medical graduates, and applicants must have graduated within the past three years. The program participates in the National Residency Match Program and only accepts applications through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS).

Overall, the program aims to provide a comprehensive and diverse training experience for residents interested in Emergency Medicine, with a strong focus on clinical education, research opportunities, and exposure to a high-acuity patient population.
