Hear from our Residents
You will work with some of the friendliest people at CAMC, from staff to residents, they really make you feel like family. CAMC also provides a comprehensive training curriculum, with early operative exposure, which offers an unmatched educational experience in almost every area of general surgery. The program fosters a culture of collaboration, compassion and a wide range of technical skills, ensuring that every surgeon-in-training becomes a well-rounded professional.
Training at one of the largest hospital systems in the state means daily exposure to a wide range of complex and diverse cases. But more than just seeing the pathology, you're taught how to think: how to approach a case, build a management plan and navigate challenges with growing confidence. That kind of hands-on learning prepares you for real-world, independent practice.
For me, CAMC is not just a program; it became my home and family. It truly felt like a key fitting perfectly into its lock, and I truly believe it can feel the same for you.
The welcoming and supportive learning environment at CAMC really sets this program apart. Pharmacy input is valued across disciplines — from preceptors to physicians to other residents — which creates a collaborative and enriching clinical experience.
