Tracks
The Virginia Tech Carilion Internal Medicine Residency Program offers both a categorial track and preliminary track.
Categorical Track
Our categorical track is a three-year program that trains outstanding internists who will excel in careers in hospital medicine, subspecialty fellowships and primary care. Our residents split their time between Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital and the Salem VA Medical Center for both inpatient and outpatient training. The categorical track is scheduled using the X+Y scheduling format explained below. Our PGY1 curriculum allows interns the opportunity to develop the foundational skills required to be competent internists. The PGY2 curriculum is designed with subspecialty experiences and scholarship in mind. The PGY3 curriculum is focused on leadership training and preparation for independent practice. The second and third years of training allow for significant opportunities to customize schedules based on future goals and clinical interests. Our program continues to require/emphasize procedural competence for graduation.
Preliminary Track
Our preliminary track is a one-year program that precedes entry into advanced specialty programs. We offer a broad Internal Medicine curriculum that is specifically tailored toward a resident's future career path. Electives are structured with a resident's destination residency in mind. Our preliminary residents are scheduled on a 13, four-week block system that does not include continuity clinic. This affords prelim residents 10 to 11 weeks of additional elective opportunity to ensure a broad base of medical knowledge before entering subspecialty training.
