The primary aim of the Temple University Hospital PM&R Residency Program at Good Shepherd Rehabilitation is to train physicians who specialize in PM&R. For decades, Temple has been a highly ranked training program and was one of the first programs in the country to create a formalized residency program in the field of PM&R.

Good Shepherd’s physicians serve as faculty within Temple’s PM&R Department and have direct responsibility for the program’s success and integrity. Additionally, Good Shepherd departments collaborate with residents to explore and enhance opportunities for research, education and quality improvement.
