Resident Fellowship Placements

Graduates from the Internal Medicine program at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences pursue a wide variety of careers, including generalist careers, training in all of the medicine subspecialty fellowships, and training in non-traditional fellowships. 

We have implemented a Research and Scholarship Curriculum to help residents identify interests, enhance research and writing skills, and connect with mentors in their areas of interest. The Chairman and Program Director work directly with each resident to assist in securing the most desirable practice and fellowship opportunities.

Our Fellowship Match for 2022-23:

We are proud to announce that we had another fantastic match this year! Congratulations to all of our PGY3s, and thank you to the faculty and staff who have supported and guided them along the way to this success!
