University of Arizona College of Medicine - Phoenix Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is an academic, multi-site integrated Interventional Radiology/Diagnostic Radiology residency at the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix, launched in 2023 and training residents across Banner – University Medical Center Phoenix, the Phoenix VA Medical Center, and Phoenix Children's Hospital. The clinical environment spans a large academic tertiary hospital handling high-level trauma, transplant, and complex neuro and vascular disease, a VA medical center serving a veteran population, and a standalone tertiary pediatric hospital, giving residents exposure to peripheral arterial disease, transplant, pediatric, oncologic, neuro, and trauma interventional radiology. The program is new and matches its own PGY2/Rad-1 positions through ERAS each year, using SOAP if unfilled. Its distinguishing feature is this multi-institutional structure combining adult academic, VA, and pediatric tertiary sites within a single integrated IR/DR pathway.
