Welcome to the Stanford-Kaiser Emergency Medicine Residency homepage. We are a 3-year fully ACGME-accredited program that began in 1991 and has welcomed ten new residents annually. Commencing July 2007 the residency will expand to 12 positions in each class.
To date, each RRC-EM site visit has resulted in our program receiving the maximum allowed accreditation length; including our current five year cycle. Residents rotate through four different hospitals encompassing the broad spectrum of training opportunities – academic medical center, community-teaching hospital, and county hospitals. These training sites are Stanford University Medical Center, Kaiser Permanente Santa Clara Medical Center, Santa Clara Valley Medical Center, and San Francisco General Hospital. The faculty includes nationally and internationally recognized educators, researchers, and outstanding clinicians. Graduates of the program have gone on to successful careers in academic and community medicine across the United States;
including some of the most competitive locations and positions in Emergency Medicine - such as Seattle, Portland, Denver, San Diego, San Francisco, Honolulu, and Washington, DC. Of special note, graduates who have applied to Fellowships all have been accepted into the position of their choice.
