They will start a residency program in hospitals, clinics, and health centers to help them train for a specialty before practicing independently.
65% of the CHSU medical students will complete their residency in Primary Care, which includes family medicine, internal medicine, and pediatrics.
“With the critical shortage of Primary care physicians in the Central Valley and beyond, we are excited that 65% of our inaugural students matched in primary care residencies,”
