Life in Oklahoma

With a population of over 700,000, Oklahoma City is the 20th largest city in the United States, offering a diverse culture infused with a welcoming and vibrant spirit. Oklahoma City is rich in First American history and culture, offering countless opportunities to honor and appreciate the tribal nations who inhabited these lands, long before statehood. 

Life in Oklahoma offers an exceptional balance of professional opportunity and personal well-being. Fellows enjoy a low cost of living, short commute times, and a welcoming community that supports a healthy work–life balance. Oklahoma is a land of cowboy heritage and multicultural opportunities, reflected in its rich history, diverse communities, and vibrant traditions. Oklahoma City provides a growing culinary and arts scene, professional sports, and family-friendly neighborhoods, while still offering easy access to outdoor activities such as hiking, lakes, and regional travel. The state’s diverse cultural heritage, including a strong Native American presence, adds depth to both community life and clinical experience. Together, these factors make Oklahoma an appealing place to train, live, and grow both professionally and personally.
