I am considering an fp residency with an emphasis in rural medicine which includes high risk surgical ob and extensive emergency med exposure. I am looking for an unopposed program on the west coast. thus far I have found 5 such programs:
ca:
ventura county
salinas/natividad
contracosta county
tacoma family medicine(wa)
ohsu/cascades east(or)

does anyone have any info/opinions on these programs not on their websites or any other programs to add to this list. thanks-e

Also check out the FP program in Santa Rosa, CA. It is an unopposed FP program with a UCSF-affiliation. You'll get plenty of hands-on exposure in OB, Surgery, and Level II trauma. It is also one of the oldest FP programs in the country.

Howdy,

Does anyone have any updates about these type of programs?
Perhaps in other states as well.


Thanks!
