Dear Prospective Applicants,

Welcome to the ARMC Family Medicine Residency Program! We are excited that you are considering our program for the next step in your medical journey.

ARMC is a 456-bed safety-net hospital leading the future of health care in San Bernardino County while serving our community with respect and compassion. As an affiliate teaching center for the California University of Science and Medicine (CUSM), we are committed to developing a culture of learning in service.

I am privileged to work with an outstanding faculty and staff who believe in always doing what is best for our residents, ensuring they stay physically and emotionally healthy. Our residency is positioned to offer you a robust, full-spectrum education in family medicine, yet leaving room for you to pursue your own interests as well through electives, leadership opportunities and community involvement.

By the time you leave our residency program, you will be properly equipped with the knowledge and experience to practice anywhere, be it primary care, hospital medicine, or academia. We want to attract candidates who have values similar to ours: compassionate patient care for underserved populations that is balanced by comprehensive education.

Thank you for taking advantage of our program! We can hardly wait for the opportunity to share this journey with you as you develop into a superb family physician.
