The MetroHealth System/Case Western Reserve University Program
About This Program
Our program is unique in training the next generation of specialists within a racially and ethnically diverse population of patients, the majority being disenfranchised, with complex comorbidities, and multiple financial and social barriers.-Because our faculty and fellows care for a variety of immigrant populations, they have the opportunity of managing unique conditions that span multi-national exposures.
