Dear Prospective Neurology Residents,

Welcome to the Neurology Residency Program at Creighton University School of Medicine. We are thrilled that you are considering joining our program, and I am eager to share what makes our residency truly unique..

As a smaller program, we cultivate a close-knit, collaborative atmosphere where residents, faculty, and staff work closely together. This fosters personalized mentorship, meaningful professional relationships, and tailored guidance throughout your training. Our goal is to nurture the next generation of neurologists by providing a comprehensive foundation of knowledge and clinical skills essential for becoming exceptional general neurologists. We focus on fostering lifelong learning, practice-based improvement, and active engagement in scholarly activities, ensuring you are well-prepared for the ever-evolving field of neurology.

In addition to academic and clinical excellence, we value residents who demonstrate intellectual curiosity, a strong commitment to patient care, and a drive for continuous self-improvement. We are looking for individuals who thrive in a team environment, show empathy and humility in their interactions, and take responsibility for their duties. Residents who are adaptable, embrace challenges, and contribute to a collaborative and supportive culture are especially well-suited to our program. We also emphasize wellness and maintaining a healthy work-life balance to support your well-being and long-term success.

We believe that the future of neurology lies in the hands of compassionate, skilled, and intellectually curious physicians. We are dedicated to helping you reach your full potential in this transformative field. We look forward to meeting you and learning about the unique qualities you will bring to our residency program.
