Program Description
Our unopposed program provides opportunity for training in a wide variety of outpatient procedures such as endoscopy, skin procedures, colposcopy, vasectomy, nasopharyngoscopy, and more. Other strengths include a great pediatric population in the FMC and an aggressive inpatient experience for both adults and pediatrics. Our Family Medicine Center is a well-equipped facility a short walk from the hospital. We are fortunate to serve a very supportive and appreciative hospital and community.
