Rural Medicine Elective

[Lespedeza]

I'm currently an R2 at a community hospital in the mid-atlantic. I've started to become interested in rural medicine as a career choice, but wanted to get some better experience/exposure. I'd like to do an away elective where I can see the benefits/downfalls of rural medicine and get more procedural experience. Do you guys know of any programs that take visiting residents on?

Thanks in advance.

Talk to these guys, every resident in the 9 programs has to do a rural rotation, 4wks I think...

Does it have to be a program? I'm sure you could rotate with me in Alaska in Jan or Feb. Just have to get your self here.
