A Message From Our Medical Director

Dear Future Residents,

It is with great pleasure that I extend a warm welcome to each of you as the APC Residency Program Director. APC Residency is a path of growth, discovery, and excellence that is fostered, cultivated and nurtured while in the program.

The Sutter Medical Group (SMG) Residency program is committed to facilitating an environment that fosters innovation, collaboration, and the pursuit of excellence in Family Medicine. We are here to support you in achieving your academic and professional goals, providing guidance, resources, and mentorship along the way.

Our residency program is not just about acquiring knowledge; it's about transforming that knowledge into meaningful action that positively impacts our communities and the world at large. We encourage you to embrace every opportunity for learning, challenge yourselves to think critically and creatively, and never shy away from pushing the boundaries of what is possible.

Navigating the complexities of your chosen field, celebrating your successes, and learning from the inevitable setbacks that come with growth are what we embrace with our APC Residency program. The unique perspective and set of skills each Resident will bring to our program is what we look forward to witnessing in addition to the incredible contributions you will make during your time here.

Let us work hand in hand to make this residency experience one that is enriching, fulfilling, and transformative for us all. We would be honored to have you as part of our community.

Warm regards,

Rhonda Blankenheim, PA-C
APC Residency Medical Director
