Observership-application season for 2026-2027 in Combined Internal Medicine/Pediatrics opens in April.

Each year, we have limited openings for medical-school graduates to observe in our Combined Internal Medicine/Pediatrics Residency Program for 1 to 2 weeks to allow participants to gain insight into the American health-care system, learn about clinical practices, and gain understanding without directly participating in patient care.

Details

• Candidates must be genuinely interested in applying to an Internal Medicine/Pediatrics Residency Program and/or interested in working in primary care.
• The observership takes place in the Med/Peds outpatient clinic only.
• The observer candidate must meet minimum requirements of USMLE Step scores > 50th percentile, graduation date < 5 years by start of residency, and meet all Hurley observership guidelines at the time of application. See standard practice.

When application season opens in April, application information will appear on this page.
