The Kansas City (Mo.) University of Medicine and Biosciences joined forces with Kansas City, Mo.-based HCA Midwest Health to collaborate on additional clinical training opportunities for medical students, according to The Kansas City Star.
Through the partnership, approximately 100 third-year medical students at KCU will have four weeks of clinical training at HCA's various facilities. Bruce Williams, DO, a KCU alumnus and physician with HCA, will head up the initiative.
"This partnership will assure valuable experiences for our students who will train in some of the finest hospitals and learn from some of the most knowledgeable physicians in the region," said Marc Hahn, DO, president and CEO of the Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences.
