The combined internal medicine/psychiatry program was developed in 1996 by the Departments of Internal Medicine and Psychiatry, who have a history of a close collaborative relationship. This five-year residency program leads to certification by the American Board of Internal Medicine and the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.

The program is under the directorship of Daniel Rosenthal, MD, a graduate of the Rush internal medicine/psychiatry residency program; Stephanie Cavanaugh, MD, professor of psychiatry and director of the Section of Internal Medicine/Psychiatry, with a conjoint appointment in internal medicine; and Richard Abrams, MD, associate director of the internal medicine residency program.

Since its inception, the program has matched four residents per year with an overall program size of twenty residents. The program has 18 residents and is presently the largest internal medicine/psychiatry program in the country.
