The mission of the Department of Internal Medicine Residency Training Programs at Saint Louis University School of Medicine is to create physicians who are effective life-long learners, committed to continuous pursuit of the skills and scientific information that will benefit patient care, the community and future physicians.

Quality resident education does not just happen; it must be proactively encouraged by leadership, and embraced by individual faculty and residents. Truly innovative teaching remains a top priority for the Training Programs -- it is an investment in the future health of the Department, the School of Medicine and the University. The return on investment for our institution is the considerable professional reward and personal satisfaction associated with resident mentoring, and the transfer of clinical judgement skills to our trainees.

Like the City of Saint Louis in which it is located, Saint Louis University School of Medicine always has been at the edge of change. Just as the city functioned as the "Gateway to the West" for millions of Americans in search of something better for themselves, Saint Louis University School of Medicine has served for more than 160 years as a "gateway to the future" for more than 10,000 physicians seeking to discover something better within themselves and in the world around them. We invite you to spend a few minutes exploring this website to learn more about the Saint Louis University School of Medicine Residency Training Program and the vision that prepare our residents to meet the challenges of health care in the 21st century.
