Residents train in a variety of settings including Parkland Memorial Hospital and University Hospital - Zale Lipshy which are both JCAHO-certified primary stroke centers; a private university hospital system; the Dallas Veterans Administration Hospital; and in general and subspecialty outpatient clinics.  

After completing their training, residents are equipped with the skills necessary for excellence in either academic or private practice careers. Our program also provides ample opportunity for academic pursuits including basic science or clinical research.
