Residency-Based Programs

Residency-based programs are structured training paths for medical graduates, typically focusing on a specific specialty such as internal medicine or surgery. After completing medical school, doctors enter these programs to gain practical, hands-on experience under supervision, refining their skills in a real-world clinical setting. Residency duration varies by specialty but generally lasts several years, allowing physicians to develop expertise, independence, and the competence necessary for independent practice. These programs are essential stepping stones in a physician’s career, ensuring they are thoroughly prepared to provide specialized medical care safely and effectively.
