Rotation Schedule
Rotation Schedule
Residents rotate through several different learning sites for a comprehensive educational experience encompassing the full breadth of family medicine. Outpatient and elective experiences occur in all 3 years, however the bulk of inpatient care occurs during intern year and second year, with more time set aside during third year for electives to refine training toward individual career goals. Please note that 1 block equals 4 weeks.
