Program Highlights

We are strong in all areas of laboratory medicine, and have a long history of departmental and faculty support for residency training.

We offer a variety of training sites, including community hospitals, large referral hospitals and an urban private laboratory, providing residents with exposure to a wide variety of potential practice types. Rural hospitals are also available for electives and laboratory management training.

There are strong, co-operative relationships between our program and other laboratory medicine residencies, fellowship programs and the excellent medical laboratory science program at U of A.
