Why I chose Providence: During my PGY-1 training, I enjoyed the experience of my PMG rotation and really appreciated the collaborative and supportive environment from preceptors and the health care team. This program offers preceptors who are excellently trained and enthusiastic to coach learners, multi-layered learning, and champions the use of evidence-based medicine.
