Our Commitment to Inclusive Excellence

By building a multicultural resident community, we ultimately aim to create a diverse and culturally sensitive workforce that reflects and responds to the needs of our increasingly diverse population. Los Angeles is one of the most diverse training grounds for resident physicians, and UCLA boasts an abundance of resources for those interested in a diverse experience and health disparities.

We hope to actively recruit a talented intern class to add to the richness already represented in our program.
