    Program Description

    We want to produce the consummate physician: strong in cognitive and procedural skills, well-versed and comfortable with the biopsychosocial model of care. Our curriculum teaches the meaning of scholarship, including the development of teaching and presentation skills, leadership and basic classical research skills. With electives available in sports medicine, geriatrics, and rural medicine, we can provide opportunities for focused experiences.
