   LEADING

   THE WAY

Welcome to the MU Med-Peds Website. Our residents are proud of the robust, resident-driven training program we have developed at the University of Missouri. We are fortunate to have excellent support from our Medicine and Child Health departments, and enjoy the benefits of a stand-alone Med-Peds department with its own Med-Peds faculty, program director, chief resident, and support staff.

In addition to the practice of patient care, our residents are highly involved in education, leadership, and research.  We are actively involved in the on-site medical school. 

Our residents have given lectures, led small group sessions, and have written parts of the MU School of Medicine’s curriculum. Many of our residents serve as elected officials on the House Staff Organization for our hospital administration.  We also have a long tradition of working closely with Camp Hickory Hill, which is a local children’s diabetes camp.  Our residents are actively engaged in research.  Previous residents have won grants for medical outreach to underserved communities. Many residents have given presentations at national meetings or have been published. Two of our residents were selected in recent years to give platform presentations at the NMPRA annual meeting.

The Med-Peds residents take pride in the resident driven curriculum. Our weekly curriculum conference allows for board preparation and a brief review of the latest research. We enjoy monthly meetings hosted in various residents’ homes throughout the year. We recently initiated a specific curriculum for the outpatient care of adult and pediatric patients.  New Med-Peds specific rotations are created yearly, to foster new opportunities for our residents.

Graduating residents have entered a broad range of careers from primary practice, hospital medicine, emergency medicine, and fellowship training in either categorical or combined Med-Peds fellowships.  

The supportive learning environment fostered by our residents has created a fantastic training program. I am proud to work with one of the best groups of residents at MU.  I hope you will take a closer look at our program.  I bet you will like what you find.
