ARLINGTON, Texas — Sixty physicians are taking the next step in their careers by joining Texas Health Resources’ graduate medical education (GME) programs.

The incoming residents learned they secured positions with Texas Health on Match Day 2025, an annual event administered by National Residency Matching Program (NRMP).

“Match Day is a milestone in the career of every doctor,” said Shelly Monks, FACHE, chief academic officer for Texas Health. “These physicians have completed four years of medical school and are now ready to embark on training within their selected specialty as the next step in their medical career. We are excited to welcome them to Texas Health for a high-quality training experience that will prepare them for successful careers contributing to the health of the communities we serve.”

Residency programs provide physicians hands-on clinical experience and training in specific specialties.

“Texas Health is investing in the future of North Texas. Across the country, communities and delivery organizations are grappling with projected physician shortages,” said Andrew Masica, M.D., M.S.C.I., chief medical officer for Texas Health. “The primary goal of our GME platform is to develop well-trained, compassionate physicians who will serve patients and their families in the region for years to come.”

Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas started the system’s first GME program, in internal medicine, in 1977.

Since 2021, Texas Health began growing its graduate medical education program by starting a General Surgery Residency at Texas Health Fort Worth. In 2022, Internal medicine residencies were added at Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Fort Worth and Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Hurst-Euless-Bedford, which also has clinical rotations at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Denton. Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Plano welcomed its first class of internal medicine residents last July.
