Special Features
Our hospital is adding a Residency program to a fully staffed set of inpatient and outpatient services. The benefit to our residents is a relatively light call schedule which is geared to the further education of our trainees. In addition, we offer a full-day of Didactics every Thursday for all four years of the residency (5 months of the PGY-1 year has a half- day of didactics.)
