Why Brown Med-Peds?
We are recruiting committed, compassionate, and curious residents to care for our diverse patient community, to develop excellent clinical skills, and to explore the unlimited potential of combined Med-Peds training.
Med-Peds has been a part of the Brown residency programs for more than 30 years, building on two strong categorical programs. The Division of Medicine-Pediatrics provides clinical care in all of our hospitals and primary care clinic. The latter is staffed exclusively by Med-Peds Core Faculty, who advise and mentor our residents.
Residents are the primary physicians for their patient panel at our continuity site, the Medicine-Pediatrics Primary Care Center. Our site has served the Providence community for over 25 years caring for children, adults, and families. It serves as a NCQA-Level III Patient-Centered Medical Home for our patients.
We emphasize individual development, supporting residents in identifying and furthering their passions. Certificate tracks offered include Global Health, International Child Health, Clinician Educator, Women’s Health, and Research.
Residents and faculty are critical to shaping the program, and are recruited to teaching and leadership roles in the hospitals, medical school, and local and national organizations. Check out the Faculty, Residents, and Alumni pages to see the full breadth of Brown Med-Peds potential realized!
