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.

Congratulations to “Uncle” Marc Shalit for receiving the “Excellence in Teaching Award” from the UCSF Academy of Medical Educators.  This prestigious award recognizes contributions to medical student and resident education in 2009.

 

Congratulations to Sarge Takhar and Jacoby Allen!  Both received awards at the annual UCSF Fresno Medical Education Program housestaff graduation ceremony in June 2009.  Sarge received an award for the Outstanding Faculty Teacher, and Jacoby was elected the Intern of the Year. Great work, guys!
