    Program Description

    Our purpose is to passionately teach, model and mentor exceptional residency education and whole-person care for all patients in our community and beyond, by cultivating an ethos of integrity, accountability, and compassion by developing future family physicians with lives of mission, excellence and service to others. One unique benefit at our program is that residents are allowed to do a four week international mission trip without extending residency. This mission trip is also eligible for reimbursement.
