About the Program
The Mountain Vista Family Medicine Residency is a suburban, community hospital-based program. Our mission is to train learners from diverse backgrounds into world-class physicians who will provide evidence-based, high-quality care, be passionate about caring for patients and partnering with them on their health, and be lifelong learners. We hold firm to the idea that each patient comprises mind, body, and spirit; the three are interrelated to compose a person’s health.
While our program focuses on preparing for life in an outpatient setting, there are plenty of opportunities to train in the inpatient realm. We provide a supportive learning environment and faculty who are genuinely interested in helping you grow in your personal and professional life.
