Memorial’s GME Program
From the very start, Memorial’s Graduate Medical Education program places the emphasis on real learning, not just observation. This is three years of invaluable experience.
Memorial Hospital is a Level II trauma center, with a full spectrum of medical and critical care — and the only Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) for sick newborns and infants on the Mississippi Gulf Coast is available at Memorial. We are integrated with the community through our work with local health departments, FQHCs and research opportunities with NDORI, along with numerous, ongoing clinical trials.
“We offer a great balance between academic learning and hands-on experiences. We look to attract residents who are eager to grow professionally as well as individually.”
