Internship Program
Overview
The University of Maryland Medical Center, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery offers a one year internship with responsibilities identical to those of the categorical first year residents; including clinical and didactic responsibilities. Interns take resident level call at the University of Maryland Medical Center and the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center. The internship provides a robust clinical and didactic experience, participation in OR cases, outpatient clinics and inpatient care. The patient management experience gained from the variety of conditions treated in the unit will be invaluable towards pursuing a residency and career in oral-maxillofacial surgery. A well-rounded didactic schedule, which includes a physical diagnosis course compliments the clinical experience at Maryland. Interns receive a salary at the PGY-1 level and all interns are required to be on campus for an orientation two weeks before the July 1st start date.
