Practicing primarily at one ambulatory site allows our residents to maintain continuity of care for their patients. 95 percent of clinics are continuity clinics, an important element of the program's success. As a result, our residents are extremely well-prepared to enter academic or private practice when they have completed their training. Our collegial group of faculty with diverse interests creates an ideal training environment.
