Welcome to the CHRISTUS Health-Texas A&M College of Medicine Spohn Emergency Medicine Residency in Corpus Christi, Texas!
Our program offers a 3-year (PGY-1 to PGY-3) residency with exceptional learning opportunities in our Emergency Department located along the Texas seashore. We provide residents with the knowledge, procedural skills, and judgment to skillfully practice in any emergency care environment or pursue further fellowship training.
Highlights of Our Residency Program:
High Acuity Patient Population: Each of our clinical sites serves a unique and diverse patient population, with over 125,000 emergency department visits annually. This high volume ensures residents gain experience with a wide range of medical conditions and critical cases.
Unopposed Resident Autonomy and Procedural Access: Our residents benefit from being one of only 2 residencies which leads to significant autonomy and unopposed access to many procedures. This exposure builds confidence and competence in managing a wide variety of emergency situations independently.
Exceptional Residency Culture: We pride ourselves on a supportive and collaborative residency culture. Our diverse and engaged faculty is dedicated to the education and professional development of every resident, fostering clinical excellence, technical skills, and leadership development.
Comprehensive Curriculum: Our curriculum is designed to cultivate clinical excellence and leadership. Graduates are well-prepared to assume leadership roles in the emergency medicine community practice, academics, and local, regional and national healthcare organizations.
Extensive Moonlighting Opportunities: Residents have access to extensive moonlighting opportunities, allowing them to gain additional exposure to different clinical practicen environments, including rural emergency departments, before completing their residency.
Unique Partnerships: Our partnerships with the Corpus Christi Fire-EMS Department, HALO Flight Ambulance Service, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Naval Air Station, Corpus Christi Swat Team, and the Texas A&M College of Medicine provide a comprehensive and diverse emergency medicine experience.
