“Our hospital is a learning hospital which
will expose you to a variety of patients with a myriad of disease
processes. We are looking for people whose clinical skills we can
nurture via the active management of patients, the formulation of
relevant learning issues and questions, and the regular review of
the medical literature and other resources.
Upon completing residency training here you will be able to practice
quality medicine. You will be able to pass the American Board of
Internal Medicine exam (our board passage rate exceeds the national
average over many years). You will also be able to understand the
economic and ethical issues important to the private practitioner.
Our curriculum includes seminars on the financial management of
a medical practice, as well as important ethicolegal issues in
medicine, performance improvement, patient satisfaction, psychosocial
issues and palliative care.
Our internal medicine and subspecialty faculty members are enthusiastic
participants in resident education. The teaching and practice of
quality medicine is their top priority. Members of our faculty
are involved in nationally conducted multi-center clinical trials.
Their work can be found in such publications as The New England
Journal of Medicine, The Journal of General Internal Medicine and
in primary care textbooks. They have presented and participated
as faculty in regional and national meetings, particularly those
of The American College of Physicians. Several faculty members
are listed as some of New Jersey’s and America’s BEST
DOCTORS. Multiple faculty members have received awards for their
teaching efforts from our affiliated medical school, Drexel University
College of Medicine.
Perhaps the most important feature of our program is the fact
that the program and departmental directors as well as the key
faculty members work with you every day in caring for patients
on the wards and in the clinic. We give you feedback on a daily
basis about your performance, and we quickly get to know your skills
and areas for improvement. We teach and learn with you on a daily
basis. We respect and treat you as a colleague.
Monmouth County is a beautiful place to live with an enjoyable
pace of life. Many graduates choose to stay in the area to practice
medicine, and they proudly participate as faculty members in our
program.”
