Internal Medicine Residency News, April 22, 2024

From the Director

Thank you to all the SARs who covered for our rising SARs for the Thursday afternoon retreat, as well as to Dr. Criscione-Schreiber for hosting, Kayla for the set up and our amazing team of Drs. Garbarino, Labriola, Van Kirk, Hargett as well as our amazing chiefs for running the sessions. 

This week is closing in on the last week to register for boards if you are a SAR.  We will soon be sending out the signups for end of year meetings with Dr Hargett (interns/ JARs not applying to fellowship) and me (SARs/preliminary interns/).   We will get the signups out ASAP.

Congratulations to our 2024-25 ResCo chairs Mark Brahier, Alison Smith and Auston Stiefer!

Congratulations to Sarah Morgan and Dan Weinberg on their wedding!
