*Continuity Clinic is obtained at our primary clinic site, the Community Family Clinic, in Idaho Falls. At a minimum, residents have a half-day clinic session per week independent of rotation. As typical with Family Medicine residency training, more time is spent in clinic with additional years of training.
Core required rotations are typically 4 weeks blocks. Elective rotations are 2 to 4 week blocks.
