Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine Residency Program
Residents will spend an average of three half days per week in the continuity clinic. Patients of all ages are seen through the Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine clinic, where the residents gain experience in the care and management of their own panel of patients and the daily operations of an office practice under the direct supervision of the NMM-OMM residency program faculty.
