We also are a core site for the following 3rd-year Family Medicine Clerkships:

  • Tufts, (Maine Medical) School of Medicine

We strive to provide an optimal learning experience by allowing students to be involved in all aspects of medical education. We will only schedule rotations when there is no conflict with resident education. Rotations are available to students from U.S., Canadian and offshore medical schools.
