Montana State University releases new television commercial highlighting WWAMI Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho new resident physician program

WWAMI is a cooperative program with the University of Washington School of Medicine and the states of Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana and Idaho. It allows Montana students to attend their first two years of medical school at MSU’s WWAMI campus at Bozeman Health and receive their medical degree from the University of Washington after completing clinical training in both Seattle and Montana.

“Many Montana communities lack an adequate number of primary care physicians,” said Martin Teintze, director of the Montana WWAMI program. “The WWAMI program makes medical school accessible to Montana residents and encourages graduates to locate in underserved areas.”
