Transitional Year Program Director Welcome

Upinder Singh, MD, CMD, FACP, AGSF

Welcome to our newly accredited Transitional Year Program at Southern Hills Hospital, part of the Sunrise Health Graduate Medical Education Consortium. Southern Hills Hospital earned the honor of Best Hospital in Las Vegas in 2017 for the quality and compassion of its patient care. As you take the first step in preparation for your advanced training, our program will equip you by providing exceptional training in different disciplines of medicine. My vision, as Program Director, is to make sure your unique needs as residents are fulfilled so that you become excellent physicians of tomorrow.

Residents will have the opportunity to work in a collaborative academic environment where they will rotate with our ACGME-accredited sponsoring program in Family Medicine, at Southern Hills Hospital.

We share a commitment for teaching and learning at the highest standard of education as the foundation for our program. We offer innovative approaches to residency training in a supportive and collaborative environment to provide you with the tools, skills and experiences to be an outstanding physician and leader – in our hospital, our community, and beyond. We have assembled a highly experienced team of clinicians and medical educators to guide our residency programs to achieve the highest quality educational experience.

We welcomed our inaugural class of 13 Transitional Year residents July 1, 2018.
