Why Choose UNC for Residency<\/h2>\n

The core values of the internal medicine and combined internal medicine and pediatrics residency programs are autonomy, camaraderie, and a strong sense of community. Interns and residents benefit from uncommonly dedicated faculty and innovative educational curricula. They are exposed to a wide variety of clinical experiences that prepares them well for clinical practice or further sub-specialty training. And formalized coaching, advising, and mentoring, combined with ample research opportunities, helps residents achieve their full potential.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
