What is a community-based medical school and what does that mean for me?
Simply stated, Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine, like one-fifth of the nation’s 133 accredited M.D.-granting medical schools, does not own or operate a university hospital. Instead, it partners with five major teaching hospitals and two federal institutions for clinical training. That means that you will experience a diverse patient base and observe several types of residency programs. Our alumni tell us that this community exposure prepared them to excel in their residency training. View a map of our affiliated hospitals and clinical teaching sites.
