Area Health Education Center- Northeast has been part of the health community in our area for over 30 years. We realize that the reasons for our sustained success revolve around three considerations: start with a good idea, receive the support of the community and work very hard. The need for primary care physicians has never been greater. Our family medicine residency program continues to attract physicians for the residency program and many of them stay in the area. Over 110 family medicine physicians have graduated from our program since it began. We continue to expand our educational offerings for students in medicine, pharmacy, nursing and health related professions. We know from previous experience that these opportunities can have a favorable impact on future practice site selection. We are proud of the newly expanded area of our clinic where we care for our Veterans Administration (VA) patients. Our VA patients are an important part of the educational and service mission of AHEC Northeast. We continue to expand the outreach of our effort in recruiting high school and college students to health careers. We have a full-time health career recruiter who goes to classrooms to provide educational programs regarding health careers. She also coordinates experiential rotation opportunities for students who want more exposure so they can make a good career decision. Contact Information for AHEC Northeast:
