Internal Medicine Residency Program
Sample Schedules
All Primary Care residents rotate through all program-affiliated medical centers for inpatient rotations (UCLA Ronald Reagan, UCLA Santa Monica, Olive View, West Los Angeles VA). Inpatient and sub-specialty rotations are slightly weighted toward the institutions of the respective track. Below are samples of what a year's schedule might look like for residents in each of our two primary care tracks.
*Throughout this page, the term "hospitalist" refers to physicians practicing hospital medicine.
