As many of you are aware, The Residency Program in Community Osteopathic Medicine is striving to be the premier osteopathic residency training program in the nation. We are striving for GREATNESS, and the input from resident applicants and students to date has been incredible. As medicine changes, we will be at the forefront, not stifled by large institution systems.
NYCOM has been awarded a Center for Global Health. If our plans come to fruition, Southampton in partnership with NYCOM will offer two certificate programs to our residents. We are in the planning stages of having these certificates honored at either the Columbia University School of Public Health or SUNY at Stony Brook School of Medicine towards the granting of an MPH degree. Our Global Health certificate will be didactic and “hands-on” with a four week rotation available in Ghana.
To read more about The Residency Program in Community Osteopathic Medicine, please see the Graduate Medical Education.
