More than 60 resident physicians听and fellows were honored in June for completing their residency and fellowship training at WMed.
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
WMed boasts 10 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 five one-year fellowships for Emergency Medical Services, Forensic Pathology, Hospice and Palliative Medicine, Simulation, and Sports Medicine.
Of the 67 residents and fellows celebrated this year, 13 of them will remain and work in the Kalamazoo area. Meanwhile, an additional 11 residents will work in other cities in Michigan. Others will work throughout the nation, while many will go on to fellowship training.
