Santa Clara Valley Healthcare Program
About This Program
We are an innovative, community-based program serving San Jose's diverse and underserved populations since 1977. Affiliated with Stanford Medicine, we transitioned to Santa Clara Valley Healthcare sponsorship in July 2026, strengthening our shared commitment to equity, access, and community-centered care. We offer strong OB, behavioral science, and MSK training, plus pathways in faculty development, POCUS, and integrative medicine within a diverse, full-spectrum, unopposed learning environment.
