The department opened in 1977 and accepts about two residents per year (six residents total, two per year); it has trained 61 residents, about a quarter of whom pursued additional training, and five of the last 12 completed fellowships. It is community-based with no single university hospital: continuity clinics at Wright State Physicians on campus and the Dayton VA, and inpatient consults at Miami Valley Hospital.
