We are the only program in a 375 bed community hospital with a very busy trauma and ER department. Residents are taught all aspects of comprehensive medicine, we emphasize procedures. The major goal is training physicians to use current medical knowledge to identify, evaluate and minimize risks for patient and family while balancing potential benefits, costs, and resources. Helping residents attain their future practice goals is important to us.
