New name, same mission

We are proud to announce that Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS) is now Macon & Joan Brock Virginia Health Sciences Eastern Virginia Medical School at Old Dominion University. While our name has changed, our commitment to building a healthier community remains the same. Through our nationally recognized Graduate Medical Education programs, we continue to provide comprehensive, community-based training across multiple hospitals and clinics. This integration with ODU enhances our research and collaboration opportunities, further empowering us to address healthcare disparities and advance medical education.

What sets us apart?

Get comprehensive training in electrodiagnostics, interventional procedures, chronic pain treatment and more. Trainees work in both inpatient and outpatient settings as they provide care for patients with neuromusculoskeletal disorders, traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries.

Our program offers opportunities for residents to work one-on-one with faculty during their rotations and pursue specialized interests early in their training.

Learn more about our GME programs

Our community-based Graduate Medical Education is one of the nation's few training programs in which all residencies are integrated among a number of hospitals and community clinic settings, instead of one fixed setting such as a university hospital. Our residents work at 14 teaching affiliate hospitals, staffing hospitals 24 hours a day, implementing new treatment methods and conducting research. They see patients from diverse backgrounds and work with community faculty.
