Special Features
Our goal is to develop family physicians with skills necessary to practice full spectrum family medicine caring for underserved communities throughout North Central Washington. In rural areas, family physicians need the technical skills to practice in a variety of clinical settings, but they are also at the interface of public health in their communities. Our program will give you both the necessary clinical skills and community engagement training to make a real difference in their communities.
