“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.”
