Graduate Education

 Become part of our great tradition!

Saint Raphael’s, in affiliation with Yale University School of Medicine, has sponsored graduate medical education for more than 55 years. Resident education and service to our community are the heart and soul of our hospital’s caring mission. We look for every opportunity to improve the quality of residents’ educational and life experiences.  We are extremely proud of the results, which are reflected in the allegiance of our graduates – many Saint Raphael faculty and attending physicians were once Saint
Raphael residents themselves.

Our resident education program is overseen by a Graduate Medical Education Committee comprised of faculty, administrators and residents. This group regularly conducts detailed reviews of each residency and fellowship. We examine the educational experience, its organization and delivery, the performance of faculty and trainees, and the camaraderie and job opportunities offered to our graduates. We scrutinize the institution’s resources, considering everything from remuneration and benefits to library services and computer access. We have recruited faculty who not only enjoy medical education, but also excel in it.

We are fully committed to the success of each trainee. Residents are given the chance to realize their potential, with broad clinical experiences and opportunities to present papers and research findings at national meetings. Residents are not given responsibilities beyond those that contribute to their training, and are never asked to do work that does not require a physician or contribute to their growth.

As a Saint Raphael resident, you will be an important part of our patient-centered care team. Your opinions will be valued, and your input encouraged.  Apply to  become part of our great tradition and if you match with Saint Raphael’s through the National Resident Matching Program, you will enjoy one of the finest educational experiences available in one of America’s finest hospitals.
