Although the RMED program continues to attract students interested in a career in Family Medicine, a number of students have found that the program supports their interest in other specialties.
Over the years the proportion of students entering Family Practice residency programs has consistently remained above 50%. The remaining 45% are distributed among eleven different medical specialties. |
