The first year of residency focuses on inpatient management and skills training, combined with one half-day per week of outpatient continuity training. Residents rotate through general medicine teaching services, each managed by a senior resident with faculty supervision and consultation. The MICU is supervised by intensivists who are board certified in critical care and who emphasize total management of the unstable, critically-ill patient.

Second- and third-year residents spend more time in ambulatory settings gaining clinical experience. We also offer on-site clinics in most of the medical subspecialties. Residents frequently schedule elective time in community-based teaching practices throughout Columbus, such as dermatology, ophthalmology, orthopaedics, urgent care, women's health, rheumatology, and internal medicine subspecialties.
