Med-Peds Program Overview

The Combined Internal Medicine-Pediatrics (Med-Peds) Residency Program provides residents a comprehensive educational experience in both internal medicine and pediatrics. By rotating at three nationally recognized hospitals, residents learn in a supportive and intellectually stimulating environment that enables their career success.

Med-Peds interns gain a solid clinical foundation by rotating through inpatient, intensive care, ambulatory, and emergency department settings at Children’s Medical Center Dallas, Parkland Memorial Hospital, and William P. Clements Jr. University Hospital.

Increased supervisory responsibility is integrated as residents advance through the remaining years of training, as well as additional time for individualized curriculum blocks. Med-Peds training affords an array of career possibilities, and the program's individualized approach fosters development of each resident’s unique skills, interests, and passions.
