Medical College of Wisconsin Affiliated Hospitals Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a combined Internal Medicine-Pediatrics residency at an academic medical center, training residents across Froedtert Hospital and Children's Wisconsin, sites that together provide both adult tertiary/quaternary care and dedicated pediatric hospital experience. The program is grounded in independently strong Departments of Medicine and Pediatrics, with graduates pursuing Med-Peds primary care, subspecialty fellowships, and hospitalist careers across both adult and pediatric medicine, reflecting a dual-pathway design rather than a single dominant track. Leadership explicitly frames the program's value as producing physicians equipped for either primary or subspecialty careers, with documented resident engagement in longitudinal community health work, including refugee health literacy initiatives in Milwaukee. As part of a larger institution with substantial NIH-funded and translational research infrastructure, residents have access to research opportunities, though the program's own messaging emphasizes clinical breadth and career flexibility over a research mandate.
