Insights on Residency Training

Brandon Temte, DO

Brandon is the current Chief Medical Resident at Providence Portland Medical Center in Portland, OR. He grew up in La Crosse, Wisconsin, and attended the University of Iowa for undergrad, followed by Des Moines University for medical school. He found his passion for Internal Medicine while in medical school and has always enjoyed connecting with patients. His interests include clinical education, and he was part of a group that created a “Residents as Teachers” program during residency. He will begin a Pulmonary and Critical Care fellowship at the University of Wisconsin in 2022. Brandon’s joy outside of medicine comes from the great outdoors and hanging around Mt. Hood. When he’s not at work, he can often be found hiking, camping, or snowboarding with his partner and their dog, Tilly.
