Welcome to the Loma Linda University Preventive Medicine Residency Program! At Loma Linda University (LLU), we aim to prepare well trained preventive medicine physicians to address the health of individuals and populations. We offer innovative training in clinical preventive medicine and public health, with strengths in the areas of lifestyle medicine, global health, and whole-person care. LLU provides several types of training opportunities in preventive medicine, including categorical and combination programs.

The Preventive Medicine Residency at Loma Linda University is fully accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and fulfills the requirements for the certifying examination of the American Board of Preventive Medicine. Loma Linda University is oriented toward clinical preventive medicine and has been a leader in this area for many years. The training incorporates a wide variety of experiences in several affiliated institutions including: the LLU Medical Center, the local County Public Health Department, a VA Medical Center, a not-for-profit HMO, a for-profit HMO, a Center for Health Promotion, and a Federally Qualified Health Center (SACHS). LLU offers a competitive resident salary with excellent benefits, as well as significant financial assistance towards the MPH degree.
