Northside Hospital-Gwinnett Program
About This Program
Our program is centered at a county hospital for one of the most populous and diverse counties in the state of Georgia. Though our training curriculum, our residents are able to care for a patient population that provides an array of pathology that is not typical of a community program and is more in-line with that of a larger academic center. We offer non-clinical experiences with the Medical Association of Georgia, the Georgia Department of Public Health, and an outside research institution.
