Our program consists of three years of postgraduate study for as many as six residents per residency year. Our program is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and affiliated with University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine.

One afternoon a month, clinic and hospital duties are blocked for residents to have a full afternoon of lectures, simulation models, and quizzes, which provide a varied and interactive approach to learning.
Moonlighting
Moonlighting opportunities are available after you have received your permanent license.
Noon Conferences
Presentations are given by community physicians, fellow residents, staff, or visiting faculty over the noon hour. Lunch is provided.
Elective High Risk OB Elective
Knowing that I eventually want to return to a rural community, I wanted an unopposed program that would prepare me for whatever might walk through the door. With a strong overall training, including OB, I feel that that Family Medicine in Sioux City is definitely the right program for me.
