The Rural Health Leadership Fellowship is a full-time fellowship, embedded with the award-winning Rural Medicine Program, that offers early-career physicians clinical experiences on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Key components of the fellowship include focused clinical time in Rosebud, South Dakota at an Indian Health Service site (~12 weeks/year). Fellows serve clinically in Rosebud for approximately three months/year, split into one- or two-week rotations, with the rest of the time spent in Boston. While in Rosebud, fellows work in inpatient and outpatient settings, sharing a primary care panel with a close-knit team of co-fellows and faculty.
The clinical partnership in Rosebud also offers opportunities for participation in and development of community-centered programs.
