Welcome to Emergency Medicine


Welcome to Saint Agnes Medical Center's Emergency Medicine Residency Program.

We received ACGME Initial Accreditation in April 2020 and Continued Accreditation in August 2022 and matched our inaugural class of Emergency Medicine Interns in March 2021. Located in Fresno, California, our 3-year Community-based Emergency Department sees approximately 90,000 patients each year, supported by our dynamic group of skilled Emergency Medicine Faculty. Our program emphasizes hard work, a commitment to service, and excellence in patient care.

Located in California's Central Valley, right next to Yosemite and 100 miles from the coast, we truly live in the ideal location for whatever adventures you want to undertake.

My passion is to train you to be an Emergency Physician who is confident, passionate, and ready to treat anything that comes into the department.
