ABSMC Internal Medicine Clerkship
The Sutter Health Alta Bates Summit Medical Center Internal Medicine Residency Program prides itself on teaching and involving medical students in patient care. Students are exposed to a variety of patients and procedures in the inpatient setting at one of the largest hospitals (ABSMC, Oakland) in the Bay Area. We strive to create an experience where the learner wishes to return to our residency program for training in internal medicine. For more information, please read the descriptions below or contact us at imrp@sutterhealth.org.
