Internal Medicine Residency

In 2023, following extensive discussions among leaders from Washington University School of Medicine, BJC HealthCare, and Missouri Baptist Medical Center, a need was identified for more community-based physicians in the St. Louis region. It was clear that Missouri Baptist, a premier regional hospital without graduate medical education programs, was the site of choice.

The goal of the internal medicine residency program is to train future internists in a community setting. The environment will place residents in close contact with leading community internists with training reflecting the daily practice of those physicians. Because Missouri Baptist Medical Center functions at a high level based entirely on the efforts of those who practice there, we are able to create a training program that is education, rather than service, based. The medical staff and non-physician hospital staff enjoy a warm and collegial relationship, and residents will enter an environment that treats them as valued future colleagues.
