Bridgeport Hospital

Bridgeport Hospital is a Yale-affiliated community teaching hospital. As a resident in training at Bridgeport Hospital in any of the seven residencies or as a fellow in one of the five fellowship programs, you receive preparation for a lifetime of learning. Training at Bridgeport Hospital provides you with clinical supervision, didactic lectures and clinical skill through bedside teaching, formal lectures and seminars, and graded patient care responsibility. Our residents go on to take subspecialty fellowships, assume junior faculty positions, or join an existing group practice. All residents are required to do at least one research project and generous support is given for any scholarly activity. Bridgeport Hospital offers training programs in Emergency Medicine, Medicine, OB/GYN, Pediatrics, Radiology, and Surgery, as well as four fellowship training programs: Cardiology, Gastroenterology (G.I.), Geriatrics and Pulmonary/Intensive Care. Residents are supported by a full range of clinical services, including nurses, phlebotomists, radiology technicians, case managers, social workers, allied health professionals, nutritionists, and pastoral care. Patients are drawn from urban, suburban, and rural areas, and provide residents with experience in managing and caring for a wide variety of medical problems, ages, and demographic backgrounds.
