Medical Education

Providence Hospital is the primary site of inpatient teaching in the Internal Medicine Residency Program. In addition to Providence's Internal Medicine Residency, the Hospital has a residency in Family Practice and a Geriatrics Fellowship Program, both affiliated with Georgetown University. The Family Practice Residency Program provides an office practice at the Fort Lincoln Family Medicine Center in Colmar Manor, Maryland, a model teaching facility jointly operated by Providence and Georgetown.

Residents from Howard University in General Surgery, Orthopaedics and OB/GYN rotate through the Hospital. Psychiatry residents from St. Elizabeth's Hospital complete rotations for experience in Internal Medicine.

Surgical House Officers and Medical Associates (fully trained and licensed physicians) provide care to patients 24 hours a day, seven days a week in conjunction with the private attending physician.
