Special Features

Our program is located on a world-class, multi-cultural medical health education campus serving a largely low-income community with a variety of health issues. Being close to the border brings in cases not common to other communities within the USA. The residents have the opportunity to apply to the Early Specialization in Interventional Radiology pathway integrated within the residency program during their PGY3 then matching into prestigious fellowships.
