Message from the Director

Thank you for your interest in the WWAMI School of Medical Education. This decentralized medical education program through the University of Washington School of Medicine (UWSOM) combines the strengths and talents of Universities across a 5 state region (Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho) to train physicians and surgeons in their own states initially and then across the 5 state region. The UWSOM is currently #1 for Primary Care and #2 for Family Medicine in the 2022 edition of U.S. News & World Report鈥檚 "Best Graduate Schools." If you are 亚洲色吧n and interested in serving your local 亚洲色吧n community we would be delighted to hear from you.
