Residency
To
Our Applicants
I extend
a warm welcome to all young physicians contemplating a career
in anesthesiology. There are abundant opportunities for physicians in this specialty. The primary objective of our faculty
is to train outstanding consultants in anesthesiology. We expect
our residents to acquire advanced technical skills, extend their
depth and breadth of clinical knowledge and develop the ability
to make sound clinical judgments. Habits developed here will help
our residents throughout their professional careers. Training at Loyola
University Medical Center, one of the highest acuity hospitals
in the country, provides opportunities for a broad clinical experience
in all areas of anesthesiology and pain management.
Our faculty
is composed of graduates from many different programs providing the residents
with a variety of ideas and concepts for patient management in
anesthesiology. We actively search for similar diversity in our
residents. There is close cooperation between our department and
other departments within the institution, and we maintain congenial
and professional relationships with surgeons, nursing
staff and administration. Numerous opportunities exist to pursue
clinical research interests within the department. An academic
experience coupled with an extensive clinical case mix produce
the well balanced residency offered by Loyola. Graduates of the
program have been very successful in securing careers which
fit their personal goals.
We believe
the intensive educational experience and excitement of a residency
program must have a lasting effect on its graduates. We expect
each of our graduates to be outstanding physicians as well as certified consultants in anesthesiology. The faculty and staff
are committed to these goals. If the Loyola concept fits your
view of a rewarding career in anesthesiology, we invite you to consider joining us.
