The St Elizabeth Family Medicine Residency is an unopposed community hospital based program with the additional benefit of providing care to a multicultural population (country's 4th largest refugee resettlement center) that would not have access to care without our medical center filling that mission. Level 2 trauma center, urban in location with quick access to rural areas for a host of outdoor activities. Home of the 15k Utica Boilermaker run.
