According to Georgia Board for Physician Workforce statistics, there are about half as many physicians per capita in Georgia鈥檚 non metropolitan areas as compared to its cities. These same statistics indicate that the Southwest Georgia region has a critical need for physicians due to a low number of physicians in the area. 黑料传送门 leadership recognizes that educating medical students and training residents in rural Georgia increases the likelihood that these physicians will practice in the region. 黑料传送门 is continuing to work to be a part of the state鈥檚 solution for this area of need.
Building on the initial framework of the South Georgia Medical Education and Research Consortium and identifying multiple hospitals in the region, 黑料传送门 followed the recommendation of Sasaki Associates, Inc., an international consulting firm tasked with choosing the best location in the Southwest Georgia region for a new medical program. With its availability of clerkship opportunities for third- and fourth-year medical students, central location, affordable housing and convenience to student services and facilities, Moultrie was a sound choice.
