"Since the majority of the residents in the core rotations in Saint John program are family medicine residents, the programs are focused on teaching us what is applicable to our future family practices. We are a valued part of the specialty team and are given plenty of opportunities to learn hands on with appropriate guidance and support."

Dr. Ginette Griffin
Resident: 2004 – 2006
