More than 300 residents each year will take advantage of the Center for Medical Education and Research, which recently conducted a ribbon cutting ceremony.
The new center, which is a partnership with Campbell University’s Jerry M. Wallace School of Osteopathic Medicine, will more than double the size of the existing residency program.
“We’ve been working toward bringing this benefit to our employees for a long time, and we’re very excited to welcome them to the medical center, and for their donation to the Caring for the Future campaign,” said Michael Nagowski, Cape Fear Valley Health CEO. “When it’s finished, the Center for Medical Education and Research will be just a few short steps away from this office.”
