Impact: Medical Education Program to Serve Valley

07/29/2011

Fourth-generation San Joaquin Valley resident Kelly Fujikawa always planned to practice medicine in the San Joaquin Valley. The UC Merced San Joaquin Valley Program in Medical Education will help her do just that. "There's no better program than the San Joaquin Valley PRIME program to train exactly where I want to work," said Fujikawa, of Fowler. The program represents a critical step in meeting the region's health and health care needs. UC Merced and UC Davis announced in September a partnership to begin educating medical students in the Valley.   </description>
