Education

The Allegheny General Hospital (AGH) / Western Pennsylvania Hospital (WPH) Medical Education Consortium’s Osteopathic Traditional Rotating Internship Program is sponsored by the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine (LECOM) and approved by the American Osteopathic Association.

The West Penn Allegheny Health System has a distinguished history of providing quality care to patients and families in their communities. Should you choose to participate in this program, you will enjoy unparalleled opportunities to interact with outstanding faculty in a broad range of specialties, caring for a diverse patient population. Interns who complete the internship may credit the experience towards admission requirements for the American Board of Internal Medicine’s certifying examination.

As a participant in the AOA Traditional Osteopathic Rotating Internship Program you will have an exceptional opportunity to bring the knowledge and skills you acquired in medical school to life.

Osteopathic rotating interns enjoy a friendly and close working relationship with fellow residents, full time faculty, the program director, and the attending physicians who serve as clinical faculty. Their emphasis on high-quality patient care and their concern and interest in each intern’s education make for a nurturing, as well as challenging, environment in which to learn and work.
