Thank you for your interest in our residency program

I am excited about the experiences and training that we offer in Carbondale, a university community with many academic and social opportunities. We have both the ability and the desire to train physicians who will feel comfortable practicing in a variety of settings. Our access to numerous rural communities in the surrounding counties provides a patient population that is diverse in its economic, ethnic, and educational background.

We invite you to visit Carbondale and take a look at our Family Medicine Residency Program and our newly accredited Sports Medicine Fellowship. If our needs for training residents coincide with your needs, please take the time to come and see us.
