Vanderbilt's Department of Emergency Medicine is a leader in clinical care, education, and research. Our combined emergency departments see over 103,000 patients annually. We are the only adult and pediatric Level 1 trauma center in middle Tennessee. Our Chairman, Dr. Hess, and Residency Director, Dr. Pirotte, make education their number one priority. Every faculty member and upper level resident views excellent teaching as part of his or her responsibilities. All of us at Vanderbilt believe in creating a positive learning environment both in the classroom and at the bedside. Our fourth year medical student rotation is the highest rated required clinical rotation in the medical school. Numerous faculty are research leaders in the field of emergency medicine, several of whom are conducting NIH-sponsored research. Our department had over 50 peer-reviewed publications within the last calendar year. Details of our residency are provided in the residency section of our site. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us and we will be happy to assist.

It’s been a while since we’ve introduced our residency leadership team -

Meet our fearless leader, MJP! He’s even taller in person, his favorite beauty product is hair gel, and we can all hear him saying “Crooked splints make straight bones” in our sleep (because he says it so much).

That’s a wrap to the didactics/skills-practice portion of intern orientation! Over the last 2 weeks, the interns participated in cadaver labs to practice emergent procedures, a lot of emergency simulations, high yield didactics (always with yummy food, thanks to our amazing coordinators!), airway day with airway expert , and plenty of social events to foster the close knit community that we are proud to have at Vandy EM 🫶🏼 We will see you in the department starting tomorrow for the last 2 weeks of intern orientation!

This week for Match Monday we’re introducing Robert Kelly! Robert went to school at Mayo Clinic SOM in Arizona. He says that he’s most looking forward to “being with awesome people in a really cool city, what’s not to love?”

Fun fact: “Animals outnumber people in my house two to one; it feels more like a zoo than a home some days.”

Welcome to the team, Robert!! 🤩
