TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) — A new residency program is shaking up the medical field in the Big Bend.
HCA Florida Capital Hospital and University of Central Florida College of Medicine launched its first medical education residency program.
Students will get the opportunity to learn about dermatology and psychiatric medicine.
Dr. Jeffrey Ferraro Program Director of Psychiatry Residency says this new program will shape the new class of medical leaders.
