Choosing a residency program is one of the most important decisions of your medical career. Your future residency will be your home for the next three years. As such, it should be a place that can foster personal and professional growth. We pride ourselves on our strong collegiality among residents and the frequent professional and personal interactions with our faculty.
Suburban Community Hospital offers ACGME-accredited residency training programs in three specialties: Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, and Preliminary Medicine Year. All three programs have achieved the distinction of Osteopathic Recognition. Year after year, our Family Medicine and Internal Medicine Residency programs continue to train residents to be excellent attending physicians. Suburban Community Hospital’s Preliminary Medicine Year provides interns with an exceptional educational experience giving trainees the clinical tools they need to succeed in other residency programs.
