Clerkship Overview
CVMC is a busy, multi-site program in the Inland Empire where you will spend your month rotating through hospital-based OR cases, outpatient surgery, and several active clinic settings including a multi-specialty orthopedic group and a university-based foot and ankle center. You will scrub surgical cases at Chino Valley Medical Center and Pomona Valley Hospital, round on inpatients, take call with residents, and see a wide range of pathology in clinic throughout the week. Weekly didactics, journal club, and a monthly challenging case conference are built into the schedule. Our residents and attendings are invested in teaching, and our goal is simple: to make you a better clinician regardless of where you end up matching.

Residency Overview
The CVMC Podiatric Surgical Residency is a three-year program based at a successful community hospital in the Inland Empire, just outside of Los Angeles. Our goal is to develop podiatric physicians with the clinical and surgical skills to function as independent providers across all aspects of lower extremity care. Surgical numbers exceed requirements in every category, spanning a wide range of pathology including diabetic limb salvage, elective reconstruction, and trauma. Residents are fully integrated with allopathic and osteopathic colleagues and gain experience across private practice, academic, county hospital, and Kaiser Southern/Northern California settings. We train physicians who can think critically and adapt, not just execute technique. This is accomplished through a competency-based curriculum that emphasizes clinical reasoning, surgical decision-making, and accountability at every level of training.
