Curriculum

Our curriculum is designed to develop our residents�� knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to work effectively as physicians in a variety of settings. To achieve these goals, our curriculum committee meets monthly to evaluate and refine the educational experience of residents. In addition, each rotation’s curriculum is thoroughly evaluated on a 3 year cycle in order to continuously improve the training we provide.
