resident training

Resident training is the advanced education and hands-on experience that medical doctors undergo after completing medical school. During this period, residents work directly with patients under supervision, gaining practical skills across their chosen specialty, such as internal medicine, surgery, or pediatrics. It typically lasts several years and allows physicians-in-training to deepen their expertise, improve their clinical judgment, and prepare for independent practice. This structured training ensures they are thoroughly equipped to deliver safe, effective, and compassionate care in their specialty area.
