The Infectious Diseases Training Program at the University of Missouri-Kansas
City School of Medicine provides fellows with inpatient and outpatient
training in the evaluation and management of patients with a broad variety
of infectious diseases. Our two-year program trains physicians to become
outstanding clinicians in infectious diseases. Fellows are also provided
with an opportunity to perform high-quality research. This two-year
program features
experiences in three settings: an urban city-county hospital, a tertiary
referral hospital and a major pediatric hospital.
The subspecialty training program is fully accredited by the American
College of Graduate Medical Education, and fellows who successfully
complete the program are eligible for the subspecialty examination in
infectious diseases administered by the American Board of Internal Medicine.
Fellows are generally admitted to the program after three years of residency
in internal medicine.
