Day in the Life of an Internal Medicine Resident
Testimonials
Hallie Thompson, PGY3 |
I'm very happy with my decision to complete residency at UND and live in the Fargo/Moorhead area. The small size of the program allows for your co-residents to become like a second family, and the attendings that we work with become great mentors throughout the years of training. We receive ample learning opportunities in the bread-and-butter cases of internal medicine while getting exposure to rare and interesting pathologies at a large tertiary care center. With the end of my residency training drawing near, I feel very prepared to take the next step as an attending after training at UND. |

Cole Amundson, PGY1 |
The UND IM program is one of a kind. There's never a doubt that my education and quality patient-centered care isn't the focus of my day. The people you're surrounded by at this program make you feel like you are in the best place. |
Dre Steinwehr, PGY2 |
Residency at UND provides great training opportunities in a fast-paced environment and ability to train with a wide variety of generalist and specialist attending physicians. You get the chance to work at a Level 1 Trauma Center that is the largest referral center for hundreds of miles around, granting you access to advanced pathologies that are not always seen. This program also offers a large amount of flexibility in scheduling so you can tailor your rotations to your interests. Being a moderate-sized program also allows you to develop close collegiality with many of your attendings. Aside from that, Fargo is moderate-sized city with most of the amenities one may need, though it has a small-town feel where you will see friends, residents, and attendings throughout community events. |

I like that the morning and evening commutes are non-existent for traffic jams. I like that there are numerous activities to find around the city of Fargo and Moorhead, Minn. (which is right across the river).Nathan Marsh2023 Graduate
