Northeast Oregon Area Health
Education Center (NEOAHEC)
and the Oregon Health Sciences
University (OHSU) Department
of Family Medicine have an
nounced the creation of four sites
for medical resident training in
noriheast Oregon. Nineteen fami
ly medicine residents will be
receiving five to 10 weeks of
training at four northeast Oregon
sites during the 1992-93 school
year.
The four sites in northeast
Oregon which will educate and
train residents are the Winding
Waters Clinic in Enterprise, the
Hermiston Medical Center in
Hermiston, Dr. Robert Holland’s
Family Practice in John Day and
Medical Center Pediatrics in
Pendleton. These locations were
chosen because they will offer
educational strengths to comple
ment the other learning ex
periences residents receive at
OHSU.
Northeast Oregon Area Health
Education Center is a private,
non-profit organization governed
by a 19 member board of direc
tors from Malheur, Baker, Grant,
Union, Wallowa, Umatilla and
Morrow counties. Northeast
Oregon AHEC is part of the
