OVERVIEW

Founded in 1974 at Valley Medical Center in Fresno County, the Emergency Medicine residency is one of the first EM programs in the country. We offer a four-year program (PGY 1-4) with 10 residents per year, featuring a strong emphasis on clinical teaching and hands-on training.

The New ED!

On April 17th, 2007, after years of planning, the UCSF Fresno Medical Education Program successfully moved to a new campus at Community Regional Medical Center.  Our giant, new, state-of-the-art ED serves as the only Level 1 trauma center and Burn center for Central California, and handles an annual ED volume of 110,000.

 

Dr. Gene Kallsen has been selected by the Community Foundation as one of the "Ultimate People" of 2009.  He received his award at a recent gala event (i.e. lots of great, free food, drinks, and music). 
Congrats to our Chief!
