Insights from the Tufts Medical Center neurology residency program director
Thank you for your interest in Tufts Medical Center Neurology Residency and Fellowship Training Programs. This is a wonderful time to be going into our field and there are vast opportunities available for residents completing our program. Whether one chooses an academic, community or laboratory investigative career, we strive during your 3 brief years of neurology residency training to provide the clinical knowledge, skills and attitudes required to be a world-class neurologist prepared for the career of your choice.
All future success follows from a firm grounding in clinical work and the ability to think like a neurologist. Our neurology residency and fellowship programs stand out because of highly committed bedside teaching and a regular schedule of formal rounds that allow for the transmission of experiential knowledge that cannot be acquired from published sources. We pride ourselves on our professional and mature residents and continue to feel close and loyal to them well beyond their years with us in Boston. It is evident when we encounter a graduate of the program at a national meeting that we have met our goal of turning out master clinicians.
We, and the over 40 full-time academic faculty of Tufts MC Neurology, have built the program around training, and, as our residents and graduates can attest, they are always genuinely dedicated to the house staff and their professional education. We look forward to hearing about your interest in neurology as a career and hope that Tufts MC will be the program that best suits your views and goals.
