Our main focus for residents in training is creating an environment of continuous learning and inquiry using evidence-based medicine. The program provides outstanding training to prepare residents for successful careers in a wide variety of settings including inpatient, outpatient, academic, rural, sports medicine, low risk obstetrics, global health and subspecialties. Wednesday afternoons are protected lecture time starting with a guest speaker for Grand Rounds followed by intern or upper level conference.
