Why Choose ARMC for Your Postgraduate Residency Program?
 
More than 4,000 obstetrical deliveries and several hundred gynecological procedures are performed through Arrowhead Regional Medical Center annually. In a typical year, there are more than 30,000 outpatient visits to our Women's Health Center.

 
 
This program teaches Physician Assistant Residents to manage complicated and non-complicated antepartum, intrapartum, postpartum, postoperative, and acutely ill OB and GYN patients. The curriculum also includes L&D triage management, ER consultations, experience with evaluating and treating common GYN complaints, and routine OB and GYN outpatient care. Residents typically graduated with having performed over 200 vaginal deliveries and first assist in over 50 cesarean sections.

Location is Everything!!!


 
Southern California
 
When residents have some time away from Labor & Delivery, and after some much needed rest they actually do get out and visit some of Southern California. With the beaches only an hour away, the summer here is hot and the beach can offer a cool getaway. Our staff also hike and camp in our local mountains, only 30 minutes away. Las Vegas is only a 3 hour drive and the surrounding cities of Redlands, Riverside and Rancho Cucamonga offer shopping, dining and attractions only found here in Southern California.
