Guided by Experience, Driven by Excellence
Mentorship has played a defining role in my life. As a first-generation college graduate, the unwavering support of numerous mentors allowed me to see my potential and set high goals. Now, as Designated Institutional Official of Sutter’s graduate medical education (GME) programs, I aim to pay this forward every day.
Our GME programs offer a training experience that will prepare you to lead in delivering the highest-quality, compassionate, evidence-based care to patients in communities big and small. Alongside a robust curriculum, you’ll gain meaningful connections with some of the nation’s best physician-mentors who provide support and guidance to realize your future as a healthcare leader.

We provide training in specialty programs such as internal medicine, surgery, family medicine, psychiatry, cardiology, hematology/oncology, obstetrics-gynecology, gastroenterology, pulmonary and critical care and more.
Additionally, you can tailor your learning to suit your unique interests, whether that be primary care, hospitalist medicine, or post-residency fellowship training. We also provide you opportunities to engage in quality improvement initiatives and train in translational and clinical research.
