Instead, EVMS works in
partnership with hospitals, physicians, and clinics throughout the
region, providing students and residents with a broad base of clinical
experience. For the region as a whole, these educational partnerships
spread the benefits of an academic medical center throughout the region,
improving the quality of life and the quality of health care for the
entire community.
