Stanford Health Care-Sponsored Stanford University Program

The Stanford University Internal Medicine Residency program offers broad clinical experience across three hospitals, supportive teaching faculty, research opportunities, and fellowship placement. They aim to prepare house staff for a career in academic medicine through clinical excellence, scientific inquiry, and compassionate patient care. The program emphasizes a commitment to patient care, education, and maintaining high professional standards.

As part of their residency program, they offer the Medicine-Anesthesia Program where residents like Jason Leong completed fellowships in critical care medicine. Other residents like Julia Chang pursued endocrinology fellowships, and James Tooley started a cardiology fellowship at Stanford. Surbhi Singhal began a Hematology & Oncology fellowship, and Sonia Shah moved on to a cardiology fellowship at UT Southwestern. Ulysses Rosas transitioned to a Gastroenterology fellowship at Cedars-Sinai.

The program provides residents with a variety of clinical environments and opportunities to develop cultural competence. Stanford's commitment to diversity and inclusion extends to patients, trainees, faculty, and initiatives focused on addressing health disparities. The residents also engage in clinical work with underserved populations through rotations, research projects focused on healthcare disparities, and volunteering at free clinics.

Applicants can apply through ERAS to the Stanford Internal Medicine Residency Program. The program conducts virtual interviews on Tuesdays and Fridays from November to January. The residency emphasizes a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion, offering mentorship, educational programs, and support for residents engaging in projects related to healthcare disparities.
