Applicants to Our Residency or Fellowship Programs
Thank you for your interest in the John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital residency or fellowship program(s). If you are coming here for an interview, you may want to review the following document that gives an overview of medical education at the hospital as well as salary and benefits.
Campus Map
We are located in the Illinois Medical District which is just south of the Eisenhower Expressway (US 290) and served by both the Pink and Blue lines of the CTA. The campus map can help you navigate between Stroger buildings, University of Illinois and Rush.
Housing Options
One of our goals is to keep you from acquiring any infectious diseases from our patients as well as preventing transmission of these diseases to our patients from those providing the care. In order to accomplish this, everyone that does a rotation at Stroger Hospital must complete an infection control form and supply the appropriate lab data prior to starting.
