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 eight residents per year, featuring a strong emphasis on clinical teaching and hands-on training.
The Move!
On April 17th, 2007, after years of planning and anticipation, the UCSF Fresno Medical Education program successfully moved its principal teaching site from University Medical Center to the new Community Regional Medical Center, with an ED volume of 110,000! This momentous day begins a new chapter for medical education in the San Joaquin Valley.
Council of Residency Directors (CORD) Resident Academic Achievement Award
Dr. Timothy Platts-Mills, one of our chief residents received the coveted CORD resident academic achievement award for 2007. This award, given to one EM resident, is intended to recognize an individual who has demonstrated much promise as a future academic faculty member. Tim is a wonderful teacher and clinician. In addition to numerous peer reviewed articles and book chapters, Tim will be the editor for the textbook “First Aid for the Emergency Medicine Boards”. He is a reviewer for Annals of Emergency Medicine and was recognized as a top 50 reviewer for 2006. Tim has accepted a faculty position at the University of North Carolina. Great work Tim!
