Consultants Corner
Meet two of our AAFP Residency Program Solutions Consultants and learn from their experiences with residency programs. In this month’s Consultants Corner, we’re featuring Greg Sawin, MD, and Lou Sanner, MD.
A program needed to build a Rural Residency Track as a new program at a nearby critical access hospital. Drs. Sawin and Sanner helped program leadership explore partnership viability, synergies and challenge points and optimize residency finances and educational opportunities.
