Train here. This is why.

The Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Fort Worth Internal Medicine Residency Program is training physicians to practice medicine now and in the future. This program builds upon the commitment to care established by Texas Health Resources, the highest-ranked health system in the U.S. on Fortune's 2025 100 Best Companies to Work For® list, and has a collaboration between the health system and the Anne Burnett Marion School of Medicine at Texas Christian University.

This program offers a unique experience for residents. Here’s how:

Training for Future Practice. The Texas Health Fort Worth Internal Medicine Residency Program provides training for how doctors will practice in the future, unencumbered by how education has been conducted for physicians in the past. In our program at Texas Health Fort Worth, residents are never on call. They are trained in a “4+2” schedule format, with dedicated sub-speciality and ambulatory experiences. Additionally, our program promotes progressive responsibility in both the inpatient and outpatient setting. Our goal is to grow and develop physicians and people in a supportive and collaborative environment.

Academic affiliation with community-based collegiality.

Texas Health Fort Worth’s affiliation with the Burnett School of Medicine means residents have access to the literature, research and support that an academic center provides, while retaining the collegial atmosphere of a community-based hospital. Many of our faculty hold academic appointments, and the Burnett School of Medicine provides training in leadership and education through a ‘Resident as Educator’ curriculum. Medical students from the Burnett School of Medicine rotate at Texas Health Fort Worth during their Internal Medicine clerkship as well as numerous medicine sub-internships.

Commitment to wellness. Our residents’ health and well-being are our priority. Residents have four weeks of vacation time as well as regularly scheduled administrative days to attend to healthcare needs, catch up on administrative paperwork and advance scholarly activity.

Experienced leadership team and faculty. With more than 40 combined years of academic medical education experience, program leaders and faculty are dedicated to offering residents the clinical experiences and opportunities to help them develop the skills necessary to begin practicing after residency or match into a competitive fellowship.

Focus on quality improvement and high-value care. Beginning in the first year, residents have dedicated time to earn the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s basic certificate in quality and safety. Residents then partner with mentors and nurse leaders to conduct and lead longitudinal quality improvement projects, with funding available to present regionally or nationally.

Your education is our priority. With dedicated academic half-days, weekly board reviews, a wide range of elective rotations, and individualized comprehensive test taking curriculum, our program provides each resident with the tools needed to begin a successful career in medicine. Your journey can start at Texas Health Fort Worth.
