  What our Students Say...  

 

     "It's hard to explain the amazing opportunities afforded to medical students that train at an AHEC community site. You can get didactics anywhere, but you can only get this much hands on training in rural communities. There is no doubt in my mind that I will be more prepared for the rigors of residency and eventual Rural Missouri Practice because of the autonomy I received while training with SEMO AHEC."
