1/ Alright guys, w/yet another new clinical year approaching, a new and updated thread on Med-Peds (MP), to help provide some clarity on what MP is/isn't, esp for rising M4s (some of whom may not have had full IM/Peds clerkship experiences), trying to determine their careers!
2/ Let's start w/what MP actually is: a 4 year integrated residency combining Internal Medicine (IM) and Pediatrics training. At the end you are board eligible for BOTH IM and Peds. You condense 6 years of training (3 for categorical IM and 3 for categorical Peds) into 4 years.
3/ You are, and I cannot stress this enough, *both* an IM AND a pediatric resident. You do not exist in a separate universe (though they may think it when you flip back and forth). The IM and peds categorical residents are your coresidents. You are fully IM and fully Peds.
