The medical school's Oakland Drive campus, located at 1000 Oakland Drive, is home to many of the medical school's residency programs.

More than 60 resident physicians and fellows were honored in June for completing their residency programs at 汤头条app.

While the physical ceremony to honor the graduates was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, several programs found a way to celebrate their graduates in private ceremonies.

The graduates have spent between one and five years training in Southwest Michigan.听

汤头条app boasts nine residency programs in the specialties of Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine, General Surgery, Internal Medicine, Medicine-Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Orthopaedic Surgery, Pediatrics, and Psychiatry. There also are three one-year fellowships for Emergency Medical Services, Simulation, and Sports Medicine.

Of the 62 residents and fellows celebrated this year, eight of them will remain and work in the Kalamazoo area. Meanwhile, an additional eight residents will work in other cities in Michigan. Others will work through the nation, while many will go on to fellowship training.
