Program Director Welcome
Welcome to Oregon Health & Science University!
Welcome to the Therapeutic Medical Physics Residency Program at Oregon Health & Science University! Our residency program began in 2011 and continues to this day with the goal of training for residents in clinical excellence and professionalism. At OHSU we’ve created a learning environment that draws on our dedicated faculty, diverse treatment modalities, and enthusiasm of our entire department to bring out the best in our residents.
One of my overarching goals is to make sure that the graduating resident in fully prepared to practice as independent medical physicists. To that end, we frequently assess skillsets and introduce the resident to increasing levels of independence while they works within a supportive team of radiation oncologists, nurses, therapists and dosimetrists.
Our faculty is enthusiastic about the insight and excitement residents bring to the clinic and we welcome your interest in our program. Please take a look around the department website and reach out with any questions you may have.

Our CAMPEP-accredited, two-year residency is designed to prepare residents for independent clinical practice in medical physics and radiation therapy. We combine hands-on clinical training, mentorship, and professional development to help residents build the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed for a successful career.
Throughout the 24-month program, residents work closely with experienced medical physicists, radiation oncologists, dosimetrists, and other clinical team members. Rotations provide experience across the core areas of therapeutic medical physics, with opportunities to participate in special projects and training at our satellite clinics.
Research is not required, but residents are encouraged to pursue projects related to clinical practice, program development, and new technology when opportunities are available.
We are committed to providing a supportive and engaging training experience where residents can grow as clinicians, colleagues, and future leaders in medical physics. We look forward to getting to know you and sharing what makes OHSU a great place to train.
