Mark S. Rasnake, MD, FIDSA

Program Director - Internal Medicine

Welcome

Our talented and enthusiastic faculty and residents, at NCH Healthcare System, would love the opportunity to guide you in your journey toward becoming an excellent internal medicine physician.

Thank you for visitng our site. I am fortunate to have joined the team here in January 2022, succeeding the founding program director Dr Charles Graeber. I have been involved in academic medicine for over 20 years and previously served as program director at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville from 2008 - 2021. I am excited about the future here at NCH, where residents have been trained since this program was founded in 2017. With our 2023 match we reached our full complement of 48 residents.

We continue to have strong academic affiliations with the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science, as well as the University of Central Florida. We have also recently opened a state-of-the art Simulation Center with a dedicated simulation curriculum for our residents and offer POCUS training and a longitudinal board review course. We have a Global Health elective offering experience in Guatemala with our accomplished faculty. The academic environment is enriched through interactions with our fellows in Hospica and Palliative Care, Cardiology, and Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine. You will find all these opportunities and more on our campus, which is only a few blocks away from the pristine beaches of Naples, Florida.

Again, thank you for your interest in our program, and I look forward to meeting many of you as part of our interview process this coming fall.
— Dr. Rasnake
