Interview

In His Image offers in-person interviews on Mondays, Thursday, and Fridays. When interviewing, an IHI resident will be assigned as your Day Host and will spend time showing you around and answering general questions. A typical interview day begins with a hospital tour and participation in morning rounds at Ascension St. John Hospital. From there, you (and your spouse, if applicable) will tour our clinic where you will participate in three separate interviews with the Residency Program Director, Associate Program Director, and Program Manager. Lunch will be provided, during which time you will have an opportunity to visit with a group of current residents. That same evening, a resident(s) will take you to dinner and help answer any questions you have about residency at In His Image. On Thursday evenings, you will have the opportunity to join our residents for their weekly Bible Study and fellowship.

Our program provides up to two nights lodging while in Tulsa for your interview. A travel allowance is available for you (and your spouse, if applicable) for roundtrip travel to Tulsa.

Selection

In His Image selects residents based on their preparedness, ability, aptitude, academic credentials, communication skills, and personal qualities such as motivation and integrity. IHI does not discriminate with regard to sex, race, age, color, national origin, disability, veteran status, or religious affiliation.

In His Image uses the NRMP match and complies with their policy that a program may freely express interest in a candidate but must not offer a guarantee that any candidate will be ranked within the program quota. Applicants are encouraged to apply to multiple programs.

– Clerkships –

Experience

Our sub-internships (or clerkships) are designed around an active outpatient clinic experience to help medical students develop skills in the evaluation and treatment of ambulatory medical problems and to learn about the operation of a busy Family Medicine clinic. We also include an inpatient experience for the applicant to gain exposure to some of the peculiarities and unique methods of running an inpatient service from a whole-person Family Medicine perspective.

In His Image Family Medicine Residency Program welcomes U.S. medical students to apply for a two-to-four-week rotation during their third (March-May) or fourth (July-December) years of medical school. No health service, liability insurance, or room and board is provided for visiting students. Upon request, we will do our best to accommodate lodging requests through resident host homes. IHI will also help offset the cost of your travel expenses to and from Tulsa. Students MUST have their own car or rent a car for transportation during their rotation.

Application

Before final acceptance, our Recruitment Coordinator will send a full application form that must be completed and returned, along with a letter of good standing, from the Dean or other official of applicant’s medical school, proof of liability insurance, and an official medical school transcript.

Visiting students must complete the application process no later than six weeks prior to beginning the rotation. Verbal or written notification of cancellation of the elective must be received no later than two weeks prior to the beginning of the course.
