Most clinical training takes place at The Hospitals of Providence Transmountain Campus, with additional rotations at the system's Sierra and Memorial campuses in El Paso. The program describes itself as newly accredited and reports offering six positions per recruitment cycle; it has now graduated its first class, whose members entered fellowships and practice.
