The International Medical Center has obtained academic accreditation for its internal medicine residency program from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education International, an internationally recognized body renowned for its commitment to improving the quality of training and maintaining the highest standards in residency training programs for internal medicine. This accreditation underscores IMC’s dedication to providing excellence in medical education and training.
With this accreditation, IMC emerges as the first and only hospital in the Kingdom to achieve such recognition. This milestone establishes IMC as a globally acknowledged and distinguished training hospital for internal medicine residency programs.
“The ACGME-I accreditation serves as a testament to IMC’s unwavering commitment to providing high-quality medical training,” a statement said. “It highlights IMC’s capability to attract highly qualified faculty members and gain recognition from international medical bodies. Furthermore, it opens doors for residents to pursue fellowships in the US to complete subspecialty training.”
The exceptional advantages will undoubtedly motivate resident physicians to select IMC for their training.
It is noteworthy that the International Medical Center had previously obtained ACGME-I institutional accreditation, establishing itself as the first multi-specialty private hospital in Saudi Arabia to achieve this distinction.
