Billings Clinic Program
About This Program
We offer training in the unique setting of a major tertiary referral center located in a rural state where the population is dispersed over great distances. Critical care, inpatient care, specialties, and the clinic are all our strengths. Our patients are economically diverse; patients from remote ranching/farming communities, those struggling with housing, and suburban professionals. We are a leader in serving the LGBTQ and transgender population and care for a large Native American population.
