About This Program
Our program is unique in its commitment to a Clinic First model that prioritizes continuity and longitudinal patient relationships. One-week rotations support focused learning with spaced repetition, while our robust continuity clinic is central to training. With no in-house call, residents maintain work-life balance. We're deeply embedded in the community we serve, and our supportive faculty are dedicated mentors committed to each resident's success.
