Welcome to Shifa Neurology Residency Program. Selecting a residency program is a difficult task. Not only is the training you receive going to determine how well you are prepared to be a neurologist, it will also impact your decisions regarding the next steps in your career. The foremost goal of the Shifa Neurology Residency is to train physicians to become the very best clinicians – people who can apply the most up to date knowledge in the field and principles of patient-centered care to effectively and compassionately diagnose and treat neurological disease. Our program offers state-of-the-art technological resources, evidence-based medicine, and abundant opportunities for research. Most of our faculty members are actively engaged in clinical management of patients, teaching medical students and residents, and clinical research. We believe these scholarly activities are all critical, rewarding, and synergistic.

Our neurology residency program sets a standard in neurological education, scholarly accomplishment and career opportunities. I invite you to learn all about our residency program, the Department of Neurology, our educational curriculum and conferences, and our residents and faculty. We have a tremendously diverse patient population, providing ample opportunities for learning the skilled management of the entire spectrum of neurological disorders. Residents receive personal supervision and are provided with one-on-one teaching by neurology faculty. When residents complete their training they are fully capable of independent practice as competent neurologists. In addition, there are many chances to learn about research methods and to participate in research projects.
