Internal Medicine Residency Program Director

The mission of the Temple University Internal Medicine Residency Program is to train our residents to become master clinicians with the skills necessary to become leaders in medical education, research, and clinical care of patients. Our program is dedicated to meeting the health care needs of the North Philadelphia community we serve. There are several aspects of our program that I believe set us apart from the rest and can be described in one word — OUTSTANDING:

“Temple has been a great place to transition from being a student to being a doctor. You have a great degree of autonomy. Whether you make your debut on night float, or on a floor team, you hit the ground running the minute you are on service, practicing your clinical judgment and making decisions. And if you are ever unsure, help is only as far away as your nearest senior resident, fellow, attending, or nurse. With a patient population so complex, and with a staff so approachable, you cannot help but learn something new everyday.”

Kiley Kolb, MD (PGY3)

"Temple University Hospital is far from the comforts of home in Alabama.  However, when I was researching programs I wasn't looking for something easy; I was in search of a Medicine program that would prepare me for my future as a physician.  While rotating through my cardiology rotation as a medical student, my attending told me of her training.  She attended Temple from medical school through fellowship and explained to me how well Temple had prepared her for practicing cardiology and that she had 'done it all' at Temple.  I thought to myself, that is exactly what I am looking for in a program.  Upon visiting during my interview, I was intrigued at the amount and variety of pathology that Temple provided.  Also, I felt the atmosphere was a perfect fit.  The residents were laid back and there was a definite sense of community.  Everyone helped each other out, yet you had independence from day one.  Now that I am well into year two, I am satisfied that I made the correct decision in coming to Temple to train.  I have seen so much, from common aliments to pathology that one would only see in a third world country.  Temple and Philadelphia have so much to offer, even if you are a thousand miles from home. ”

Dan Mueller, MD (PGY2)

"I knew Temple was a great place to train because I saw it firsthand as a medical student.  Still, I felt the need to apply broadly in order to see what was out there in terms of Medicine programs.  After interviewing throughout the East Coast, Midwest, and Northwest, I was able to say with confidence that none of those programs posessed a combination of excellent clinical teaching, a medically complex, underserved patient population, and resident camaraderie that matched Temple's.  Now a few months into residency, I am sure that staying at Temple was the right decision. ”

Paul Hermany, MD (PGY2)

“In looking for the ideal residency program for me, Temple had everything on my list. There is a strong academic focus here which is evident from the talented and nationally recognized faculty to the emphasis on constant learning on daily rounds, morning reports, and a lecture series featuring world-renowned experts in clinical medicine. Research opportunity is vast at Temple and ever-growing and the addition of the new Medical Education and Research Building has continued to expose residents to cutting edge clinical, translational, and basic science projects in all subspecialties. Without a doubt, Temple is the place to train to become the complete physician. As a medical student here I found this to be the strength of Temple but this ethos is the backbone of the Internal Medicine residency program as well. The patients are complex, the medicine is challenging but you learn how to take care of the patient with comfort, confidence, and compassion. To round off all the clinical education and research, we have a great group of residents who take care of each other and have fun together which is what has made my time at Temple so enjoyable. “
