Full Circle Health – Raymond Clinic
The Raymond clinic has been the home location of our residency since 1983. All interns spend their first year as Raymond providers, and 6 upper level residents in each class also stay there for their full 3 years of residency. Raymond is divided into three clinical teams by hallway as part of our PCMH initiative and is our largest clinic. Patient mix is broad and exciting. Procedural support is strong at this clinic and it houses many specialty clinics including sports medicine, rheumatology, and dermatology. All our colonoscopies and EGDs are done here. Although it is an older clinic, it underwent significant remodeling in the last few years. Attending support is a mix of core residency faculty and part-time community preceptors. This clinic offers a vibrant mix of patients and learning options.

Full Circle Health – Caldwell Clinic
315 East Elm Street, Suite 201, Caldwell, ID 83605
The Caldwell Residency Program site is based at the Elm Clinic. The clinic is located in a 56,000 square foot office building physically attached to West Valley Medical Center in Caldwell. This close proximity allows residents to go back and forth between the clinic and the hospital with ease, helping them to be involved with any interesting cases that may be going on in either location.
West Valley Medical Center

Hospital duties during years two and three will be performed at WVMC. West Valley is a 150-bed (ten critical care beds, seven intermediate care beds, eight pediatric beds) community hospital that has been serving the community well for over 50 years. Residents are welcome to gain experience in the entire hospital. They can commonly be seen in the busy ER, the endoscopy suite, the critical care unit, the OR, and even the cardiac catheterization lab. Food is provided for residents in the cafeteria and doctor’s lounge free of charge. The hospital is small enough that one can quickly learn everyone’s name, and large enough to provide a broad experience for trainees.
