Residency

The goals of the UTHSC Urology teaching program are to produce residents with the specific knowledge, skills, and attitudes required for modern urology practice.

Throughout the educational program, residents are required to develop and demonstrate skills of patient care, medical knowledge, practice-based learning and improvement, interpersonal and communication skills, professionalism, and systems-based practice.

Our goal is to ensure that each resident masters the educational program which will be accomplished through the implementation of a fully developed curriculum that effectively utilizes the skills of a highly qualified and experienced faculty, the available patient population, and all the participating institutions and resources. 

The urology residents are also exposed to urologic research (both clinical and basic science) throughout their 5 years of training.

Why Memphis?

Memphis is a truly incredible town with so much to offer! Catch dinner at the iconic Majestic Grille before taking in a Grizzlies NBA game at the FedEx Forum. Learn the history of Memphis music at Elvis Presley’s Graceland, Stax Records, and Sun Studio. Soak in the sun at Shelby Farms or the Big River Crossing. Enjoy shopping at our Bass Pro Shop, housed in the tenth-tallest pyramid in the world, then explore the nightlife on historic Beale Street.

Those are just a few reasons Memphis was named one of Condé Nast Traveler’s 23 Best Places to Go in 2023. Our UT Health Science Center was also named the ninth safest college in America by Alarms.org.

But most of all, Memphis is the healthcare hub of the Mid-South's large and diverse population.
