Residents are closely involved with the operation of the center through pod team meetings and operational committee participation. Our graduates testify that their preparation has equipped them for diverse practice settings around the world. We have superb in-hospital rotations at Palmetto Richland and at the Dorn Veteran's Administration Hospital in Columbia. A model rural practice in Prosperity, S.C. provides a unique OB month. Outpatient rotations are offered at Palmetto Richland, Moncrief Army Community hospital and with community physicians.
Preceptorships give residents first-hand experience in both urban and rural settings.
We offer on-site sports medicine and geriatrics fellowships and a preventive medicine residency. Innovative study programs at the University of South Carolina could lead to an MPH or MBA, and theological studies are offered at Columbia International University and Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary , also in Columbia. Residents will grow in competence and confidence at Palmetto Richland. They are family and more. They are colleagues, learners and friends.
