Setting
Geographically, UVA is set in a smaller city with a
country feel, yet it is also a major tertiary care center serving much
of central and south/southwest Virginia, providing exposure to plenty
of "bread and butter" medicine, with a steady stream of "zebra"
pathology transferred in from outlying communities. We have patients
from all socioeconomic levels, rural, suburban, and urban environments,
as well as a wide variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds. This
diversity allows for a rich clinical experience in our practice and
helps prepare you to better care for a wide variety of patients.
