Excellence Through Innovative Training
The goal of the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Office of Graduate Medical Education (GME) is to train residents and fellows to become outstanding specialists and subspecialists. At the present time, we sponsor eleven residencies and eleven fellowships accredited by the ACGME (Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education), as well as additional fellowships accredited by specialty societies.
Both residents and fellows have the opportunity to provide supervised patient care at University Medical Center (UMC), our primary teaching hospital, as well as other community sites, such as the VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System, Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center, Mike O'Callahan Military Medical Center, surgical centers and community physician offices. These patient care experiences allow our trainees to become familiar with different populations of patients and their unique healthcare needs.

All trainees have opportunities to experience high-fidelity simulation along with standardized patient exercises. They also have access to a dedicated surgical skills lab focusing on laparoscopy, endoscopy, and arthroscopy, as well as robotic-assisted surgery.
We aim to train residents and fellows to be compassionate, knowledgeable physicians who practice in Nevada to mitigate the physician shortage and contribute to the community.
