Resident Physicians

Resident physicians are doctors who have completed medical school and are undergoing specialized training in a particular area of medicine, such as surgery or internal medicine. They work under the supervision of experienced attending physicians to gain practical experience, develop their skills, and provide patient care. Residencies typically last several years and are essential for doctors to become fully licensed and board-certified specialists. During this period, residents balance learning with hands-on responsibilities, often working long hours to ensure patients receive comprehensive care while they refine their expertise.
