Ascension St. Vincent Hospital Program

Program Identity & Fit

Ascension St. Vincent Hospital's Diagnostic Radiology residency is a newly ACGME-accredited program based at a large Catholic, mission-driven, non-profit tertiary hospital in Indianapolis with Level I trauma, comprehensive stroke, transplant, and burn center designations, offering a full breadth of clinical volume and acuity. The curriculum follows a traditional rotation-block structure across all core subspecialties (body, MSK, neuro, chest, breast, cardiovascular, nuclear medicine, pediatrics, interventional radiology) with dedicated AIRP and elective time, and a four-block interventional radiology progression suggesting a procedural emphasis. Faculty are a mix of subspecialty-fellowship-trained radiologists from strong academic pedigrees (Duke, Columbia, MD Anderson, Indiana University) with active scholarly output, though the program itself is still building its identity, infrastructure, and website. As an inaugural program embedded in a faith-based, poverty-attentive health system, it appears to value broad clinical competency, mentorship-driven teaching, and adaptability to a program still under construction rather than an established research or fellowship pipeline.
