Does anyone know where I can find additional information on this topic? I saw a press release that a neuro residency was being created with the appointment of a new neurology chair but can't find any additional info. Also any general info on neuro training in the Kansas City area? I'm very anxious about potentially being geographically restricted to that area come application time next year. I'm aware that there's a great program at University of Kansas but was wondering what other options might be tenable for neuro residencies in that general area as well. Hard to tell just from google map. Very appreciative of any info!
 
UMKC does not currently have a neurology residency training program. The only neurology residency in the Kansas City area is at KU. St. Louis, Iowa City, and either Omaha/Lincoln are probably the closest places with neurology residencies outside of kc.

Dr. Foundas is the new chair of neurology at umkc, and her priority is to establish a strong department and residency program. This will, however, take at least a couple more years.
