Ambulatory Care PGY2 Residency
Core rotations consist of two month-long experiences in pharmacotherapy clinics that manage diabetes, lipid, and hypertension, anticoagulation, high-risk diabetes group clinic, home-based primary care, lipid clinic, and outpatient chronic pain management. In addition to the experiences available in these established clinics, the resident will also be able to develop, implement, and run their own pharmacotherapy clinic (diabetes, lipid, and hypertensive management), and outpatient chronic pain management clinic throughout the entire residency year. Other required core components are entirely longitudinal and encompass a variety of areas such as research project management, non-formulary medication review, and clinical teaching.
Additionally, each resident has several months of selective and elective rotations. The selective months will include additional experience in primary care, acute medicine, cardiology, and home-based primary care. Upon completion of the selective rotations, a resident will then have about three additional elective months where they may choose a different rotation, including geriatrics, pharmacoeconomics, acute psychiatry, acute medicine, cardiology critical care, practice management, heart failure clinic, hepatitis C clinic, and dementia clinic or choose to have an additional month of a core or selective rotation as described above.
Primary Care (also a Selective Rotation)
Residents will see scheduled patients in a clinic setting and have the opportunity to develop, implement, and redesign pharmacotherapeutic plans. The resident will document in computerized progress notes all clinical activities. Residents will also develop the physical examination skills that are necessary to be an effective clinician in the primary care setting. Residents will additionally see anticoagulation patients once a week for four hours throughout the month.

High-Risk Diabetes Group Clinic
