Thanks to its affiliation with Larkin Community Hospital in South Miami, NSU’s College of Osteopathic Medicine will be providing additional residency training opportunities for medical school graduates in the coming years through its Consortium for Excellence in Medical Education.
Larkin, which recently established both a family practice and a psychiatry residency program, is planning to add new residency programs in the areas of neuromusculoskeletal medicine, physical medicine and rehabilitation, and internal medicine in 2011. In 2012, the hospital will unveil new residency programs in general surgery, anesthesiology, and neurology.
These new postgraduate programs will be complemented with the establishment of the only hospital-affiliated neuromusculoskeletal outpatient center featuring non-interventional osteopathic manipulation treatments for back pain and other neuromusculoskeletal aliments in Miami-Dade County. Currently, Miami-Dade County citizens are traveling to the NSU Davie campus in Broward County to receive these types of services.
