Academic Affiliations
We’ve built strong relationships with leading institutions across Massachusetts to provide our residents and fellows with unmatched opportunities in clinical care, research and teaching. These partnerships give you the chance to experience diverse healthcare environments, work with a variety of patient populations and develop a broad set of skills that will prepare you for success in the medical field.

Learning through our community hospital affiliations

At Tufts Medicine, your education is built on collaboration, mentorship and hands-on experience. As the principal teaching hospital for Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM), Tufts Medical Center anchors your training within a nationally respected academic environment. Every doctor at Tufts Medical Center is also faculty at TUSM, so you’ll learn directly from experts who combine clinical care, teaching and research. You’ll also have access to TUSM’s state-of-the-art libraries, labs and collaborative spaces, plus opportunities to teach medical students and strengthen your leadership skills.

Your training may also extend across Tufts Medicine, giving you a rich mix of academic, community and home-based care experiences:

  • Tufts Medical Center: Our academic medical center in Boston and the principal teaching hospital for Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM). Every physician here is full-time TUSM faculty, providing direct mentorship and access to TUSM’s research labs, libraries and teaching resources.
  • MelroseWakefield Hospital: A community-based hospital just north of Boston, offering strong training in primary care, surgery and specialty services.
  • Lowell General Hospital: One of the largest community hospitals in the region, with nationally recognized programs in cardiology, oncology and emergency medicine.
  • Care at Home: Hands-on experience in delivering medical care outside the hospital, including chronic disease management, palliative care and rehabilitation.

This combination of academic, community and home-based training creates a powerful learning environment that prepares you for every stage of your career.

In addition to our health system, we collaborate with a wide network of hospitals and organizations across Massachusetts and beyond, giving you access to even more diverse cases, specialties and research opportunities.
