Emergency Medicine

While previously a traditional community hospital, Eisenhower became a teaching hospital with our first classes of Internal Medicine and Family Medicine residents starting in 2012. Since then our hospital has continued to grow as an academic center, adding multiple fellowships, and additional medical student and outside resident rotations. Our EM program received initial accreditation in September 2018. Our EM program has had great success in recruiting a fantastic group of educators to join our team.

The mission of the Eisenhower Health Emergency Medicine Residency Program is to provide our residents with a broad-based learning program in an environment of inquiry to prepare them for independent practice in the specialty. The residency program is designed to assist residents in developing competencies necessary to become outstanding clinicians, capable of managing diverse patient populations, and to become leaders of and advocates for their communities.

Eisenhower Health currently has residency programs in Internal Medicine and Family Medicine, as well as  fellowships in Sports Medicine, Pulmonary Medicine, Addiction Medicine, Geriatrics, Infectious Disease, and EM Based Fellowships in Ultrasound, Education, and Informatics. Services available at our facility include a comprehensive stroke center, STEMI center  (with 24 hour cath-lab availability), trauma center, 24-hour operating room availability and call schedule coverage for a broad range of specialty consultants. Eisenhower EM residents spend the majority of their time at Eisenhower Health, but will also rotate at Desert Regional Medical Center, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, and California Hospital.
