Welcome to UCLA. I encourage you to consider our residency programs for the next step of your medical training.
We are proud to share that US News and World Report rated the UCLA Medical Center "Best in the West" for 17 consecutive years,
as well as third nationally, in the 2007 edition of its annual hospital ratings. Your education here will take place in
outstanding facilities and affiliated institutions. Our nationally, and internationally renowned faculty are committed
clinicians, researchers, and educators that create a rich place to grow and develop your own skills, interests and abilities.
These are exciting times at our institution. We plan to be in our nearly completed state-of-the-art medical center in April 2008.
Our Santa Monica/UCLA Medical Center and Orthopaedic Hospital is open and experiencing extensive renovations that are slated for
completion in 2008-09. Two new research buildings have been added to our medical research activities.
UCLA Healthcare (the clinical component of the medical enterprise) supports our academic mission across a broad spectrum of sites
and settings. These include UCLA Medical Center, Santa Monica/UCLA Medical Center and Orthopaedic Hospital, Stewart and Lynda
Resnick Neuropsychiatric Hospital at UCLA, Mattel Children's Hospital at UCLA, and the UCLA Medical Group along with its
wide-reaching system of primary care and specialty care offices throughout the communities of Southern California.
Our vast range of facilities means that your patients experience medical care in an environment committed to maximizing
their experience and treatment options.
We hope that you will join us at UCLA to train with the best that academic medicine has to offer.
Los Angeles - one of our nation's most diverse and vibrant cities, is waiting for you to explore.
Plus, I think that you just might enjoy our weather while you are here.
Regards,
Neil H. Parker, MD
Senior Associate Dean for Graduate Medical Education
