Welcome to Wake Forest Radiology! We are excited to introduce you to our program and share what makes training here so rewarding.
Our residents train at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist, a busy academic medical center and the academic core of the hospital system. We work on a unified campus with dedicated subspecialty divisions in neuroradiology, abdominal, musculoskeletal, chest/cardiac, breast, nuclear medicine, pediatric, and emergency radiology. As a Level I Trauma Center, Comprehensive Stroke Center, and major referral center for oncology and transplant care, we see a wide range of complex pathology typical for a large academic institution. Additionally, we read for additional smaller hospitals and outpatient imaging centers in the region to provide well-rounded exposure to bread-and-butter cases. Optional moonlighting opportunities allow residents to earn excellent compensation while gaining further experience with academic and community radiology.
One of the strengths of our program is our tiered call system. As residents progress through training, they gain increasing autonomy and responsibility with faculty support along the way. While call can be challenging, it is also one of the most valuable learning experiences in residency and helps prepare our graduates to confidently practice independently.
Outside of work, Winston-Salem offers a great quality of life. The city has a vibrant food, arts, and sports scene, with easy access to both the mountains and the coast. Our resident social committee also helps foster a strong sense of community through events throughout the year, bringing residents and faculty together both inside and outside the hospital.
What truly sets Wake Forest apart is its combination of outstanding clinical training, supportive mentorship, progressive autonomy, and genuinely friendly culture. We encourage you to explore our website and learn more about our program. We look forward to getting to know you during the interview season and hope you will consider Wake Forest as the next step in your radiology training.
