AHEC South Arkansas is located in one of the smallest medical communities of any residency program in the US. We think that is to the resident's advantage. Most residents who come to AHEC SA from a large medical center setting are pleased with the community-based setting in which they train. The city of El Dorado is located in South central Arkansas, with population of 25,000.
