Graduate Medical Education
Welcome to MountainView Regional Medical Center! If you are exploring educational opportunities, or are considering residency here, we think you will find dynamic educational programs at our multi-faceted medical center.
MountainView Regional Medical Center is currently offering four residency programs: internal medicine, osteopathic neuromusculoskeletal medicine, orthopedic surgery, and transitional year. Faculty and staff are dedicated to the training of highly skilled and compassionate physicians, capable of thriving in the most demanding clinical and academic environments. We have high expectations of our faculty, nurses and ancillary staff, and hold our students and residents to these same high standards. We also recognize the important contribution that each one makes to the success of our programs and to the quality of the health care delivered to our patients.
MountainView Regional Medical Center doesn’t just include our main hospital. We are also affiliated with two outpatient surgery centers, four urgent cares, and with MountainView Medical Group, a multi-disciplinary group practice with more than 70 physicians. Residents are supported by a full range of clinical services, including nurses, phlebotomists, radiology technicians, case managers, pharmacists, allied health professionals, nutritionists and pastoral care. Residents are exposed to robotic surgery and brain surgery GPS-mapping technology, as well as to interventional cardiology and radiology, a wide range of orthopedic procedures and complex medical cases on the hospitalist services.
Because MountainView draws patients from both suburban and deeply rural areas, residents and interns learn to manage a broad spectrum of medical issues, and care for patients of varying ages and demographic/social backgrounds.
Depth and value is added to the GME programs through affiliations with New Mexico State University (NMSU), The Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine at New Mexico State University, and several regional hospitals.
