The UPMC Rural Family Medicine Residency training program began in 2023. The program has two residents per year, and there will be six at a time in the three-year program. We have a faculty committed to the north central Pa. region and first-rate training centers at our hospitals. As a resident, you’ll spend your first year at UPMC Williamsport. This Level II Trauma Center is also a community-based hospital where residents learn the basics of practicing family medicine. You’ll spend your second and third years at either UPMC Wellsboro or UPMC Cole. Both are critical access hospitals in rural, underserved areas. They are excellent training grounds to polish your rural family medicine skills.
