Just wondering?
I'm a second year student leaning very heavily toward PM&R due to my background and interests. In researching the various residencies out there for this field, I've seen no indication that Physiatrists have any role in what is considered "primary care". Would anyone care to comment on this position?
Secondly, would an osteopathic rotating internship and a broad-based PM&R residency program adequately prepare one to sit for Family boards if the overall result is to practice in a rural setting, and if so, are there suggestions as to which residencies might provide such training?
Thanks.
