Thank you for your interest in our program and Dignity Health! We could not be more excited to launch on this initiative at a time when the need for future leaders in Emergency Medicine (EM) has never been greater. EM is a noble career, focused on caring for all patients 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year. We treat any and all patients, and are committed to providing the highest quality of patient care under dynamic circumstances. Our program will ensure you have an educational experience that provides a solid core foundation in emergency medicine through a strong clinical experience at a busy, level 1 trauma center, dedicated on-site pediatric emergency department, and community hospital. Our engaging didactic curriculum emphasizing active learning will ensure you never have to sit through hours of endless lectures again. We respect the individual strengths and diversity of our learners, and our community of faculty are dedicated to providing you with individualized coaching to achieve your goals whether they be to pursue an academic fellowship, work in a rural area, or in the community.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions, and we look forward to meeting you.
