Program highlights
- Emphasise interest in underserved and diverse communities: the mission targets health disparities and the program serves asylum seekers and refugee families from Central America, Africa and South Asia.
- Obstetrics is a strength: 4-week OB blocks each of the first two years include one day per week on the Mama and Baby Mobile Unit providing prenatal care to uninsured patients; ask how many deliveries and procedures graduates log.
- Ask about longitudinal care: nursing home continuity over all 3 years and newborn nursery coverage 1 week per month.
- Elective time grows over training (4, 8 and 12 weeks); ask how residents use it for sports medicine, community health or fellowship preparation, as sports medicine appears in both PGY-2 and PGY-3.
- Scholarly work is expected: cite QI or wellness interests (past resident projects include a wellness manual and national poster/workshop presentations) and ask about publication support.
- Selection notes: 3 faculty letters, at least one from family medicine; IMGs accepted; J1 accepted, H1 not accepted.
