We welcome applicants at all career stages, including graduating residents and early-career physicians. The ideal candidate values service, is committed to caring for rural and underserved communities, and wants to develop as a clinician-educator while maintaining an active community-based primary care practice. Prior formal faculty experience is not required.

About the WSU Internal Medicine Residency Program

Established in 2021, the WSU Internal Medicine Residency Program was the inaugural residency program of WSU ESFCOM.

Our university-affiliated, community-based program prepares physicians for careers in general internal medicine and its subspecialties, with a particular commitment to improving access to care in rural and underserved communities throughout Washington. Our holistic resident-selection process seeks residents from varied backgrounds who demonstrate a meaningful commitment to service, collaboration, and community health.

Residents train in an X+Y scheduling model that supports a consistent, immersive presence in their continuity clinic. Their primary clinical site is Providence Regional Medical Center Everett, a 630-bed Level II Trauma Center. Residents also complete rotations through partnerships with The Everett Clinic, Western Washington Medical Group, and the Veterans Administration, among others.

As a growing residency program, we offer faculty the opportunity to help shape our educational approach, ambulatory curriculum, mentorship model, quality-improvement work, and long-term program identity.

About the Providence-WSU Internal Medicine Center

Many patients experience significant medical and social complexity, giving residents substantial experience managing high-acuity concerns in primary care and addressing the conditions that affect their patients’ health.

Residents and faculty are supported by an in-house multidisciplinary team that includes medical assistants, registered nurses, social work, nurse care management, integrated behavioral health professionals, and a clinic-based community organizer. Community internal medicine and family medicine preceptors work alongside the program’s outpatient core faculty, contributing additional clinical perspectives and resident mentorship.

Faculty Appointment

The successful candidate will hold a continuous career-track appointment as Clinical Assistant Professor within the Department of Medical Education and Clinical Sciences at the Elson S.
