Message from the Director
Welcome to the Diagnostic Radiology Residency Program at the University of Rochester Medical Center. We are proud to offer our residents a comprehensive educational experience in a collegial and supportive learning environment.
The primary mission of our Residency Program is to provide you with the foundational tools you need to become a successful radiologist. Whether your interests lie in clinical, research, administrative, or educational endeavors, we have the resources and infrastructure in place to help you achieve your career goals. It starts with a diverse patient population and large catchment area that exposes our residents to everything from "bread-and-butter" cases to complex oncologic interventions.
You learn side by side from an experienced department of clinical and research faculty who are passionate about educating residents. There are ample opportunities for research collaboration with our faculty members, who are recognized nationally and internationally for their academic contributions and leadership roles. URMC is a leading medical institution with $438 million in annual funding for research. Our trainees also benefit from collaboration with other top-ranked clinical departments such as Neurology, Orthopedics, Sports Medicine, Internal Medicine, and Surgery.
As a graduate of this program, I can speak firsthand to the commitment that our residency has to your education, growth, and well-being. I hope that you take the time to explore the unique opportunities available here in Rochester. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions that you might have.
Sincerely,
Akshya Gupta, M.D.
