Expansion
We are excited to announce the opening of our expanded graduate medical education spaces, featuring state-of-the-art offices, conference rooms, and dedicated education areas. This expansion marks a significant milestone in our commitment to fostering the growth and learning of our residents. With ample space and cutting-edge facilities, we aim to provide an enriching environment where residents can thrive, collaborate, and excel in their medical training. We look forward to the positive impact these new spaces will have on the professional development and future success of our residents.
Match Day
In June, we eagerly anticipate the arrival of 54 new residents to the Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center – Fort Worth campus. We are especially proud to introduce four exceptional individuals joining our newly establish Anesthesiology program. Six residents will be joining Emergency Medicine, 20 in Transitional Year, three in General Surgery, six in Obstetrics and Gynecology and 16 in Internal Medicine.
Thirty-one of the 54 new residents are graduates of a Texas medical school. We look forward to the invaluable contributions each resident will bring to patient care and medical innovation at our institution.
The Next Step
After completing their residency, physicians are eligible to practice medicine independently, but they must first pass their licensing exams. They also have the opportunity to obtain board certification in their specialty by taking specialty-specific board exams.
Alternatively, physicians may choose to further specialize by pursuing a fellowship. This additional training allows them to concentrate on a specific area within their initial specialty and typically lasts between one to three years. For example, someone who completed a general surgery residency might pursue a fellowship in subspecialties like plastic or reconstructive surgery, vascular surgery, hand surgery, or others.
Of the 15 Internal Medicine residents that began the two-year residency in June 2022 at Baylor Scott & White – Fort Worth, 10 will be staying in north central Texas to begin their career in medicine.
