Program Highlights

The UC Davis Internal Medicine Residency Program offers a unique and comprehensive training experience that integrates the strengths of a top-tier academic medical center with the dynamic clinical environment of a major military medical facility. This program provides residents with the opportunity to train at both UC Davis Medical Center, a renowned tertiary care center in Sacramento, and David Grant USAF Medical Center, the Air Force’s largest medical facility on the West Coast, located on Travis Air Force Base.

Residents benefit from a diverse patient population and a wide variety of clinical cases, enhancing their diagnostic and treatment skills. The program emphasizes evidence-based medicine, patient-centered care, and interdisciplinary collaboration. A robust curriculum includes rotations in general internal medicine, subspecialties, and critical care, supplemented by opportunities for research, quality improvement projects, and community service.

Faculty from both institutions are dedicated to resident education and professional development, offering mentorship and guidance throughout the residency. The program fosters a supportive learning environment, promoting wellness and work-life balance. Graduates of the program are well-prepared for careers in academic medicine, subspecialty training, and leadership roles within the military and civilian healthcare systems.

This combined residency program is ideal for individuals seeking a rigorous and diverse training experience with a commitment to excellence in clinical care, research, and medical education.
