Residency is a stage of post-graduate medical training. A resident physician is a doctor who has received a medical degree and practices medicine under the supervision of fully licensed physicians, usually in a hospital or clinic. A residency may follow the internship year or include the internship year as the first year of residency. Successful completion of residency training is a requirement to practice medicine as an attending physician. A resident may choose a residency in any specialty of their choosing but may have to complete years in more general training as prerequisites for some specialities.
