Special Features

Rural communities depend on clinicians with a broad scope of skills to care for them and their families. Our rural residency program incorporates the rigors of academic-based training with real-world experience in a small community away from urban academic centers. Our hope is that program graduates end up practicing in small, rural communities and have the skills to care for a diverse patient population, maintain work-life balance and enjoy life-long learning. Come train with us!
