COMING SOON...
Thank you for spending some time to get to know us and our program!
About one week prior to your Interview Day, you will receive more information from us, including access to our Interview Day website. There, you'll be able to get to know our residents, chiefs, and faculty and find out why they chose Dartmouth! You'll also learn more about what our graduates do after residency and get a better feel for what it's like to live in the Upper Valley, the beautiful place that we get to call home.
We'll also give you an agenda for your virtual interview with more on what to expect from the day itself.
We're looking forward to meeting you (virtually) soon!
INTERESTED IN PRIMARY CARE OR AMBULATORY BASED SPECIALTY?
If you're considering a career in primary care or an ambulatory based specialty, the Primary Care Track may be a great option for your career development.
Training in the Primary Care Track prepares you well for many career options and does not close any doors regarding your future -- prior residents have launched into an ambulatory practice or have been very competitive in the fellowship match.
If you did not apply to the Primary Care Track, please feel free to review the videos describing the training and contact us if you would like to consider it. It is not too late to be considered for both tracks. We would love to help you reach your goals!
