"Most of the upperclassmen who went to Baystate told me it was one of the best choices they made in medical school."
—Derrick Hwu, M'12 |
Thirty-two medical students from Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM) have chosen Baystate Medical Center as their site of choice to complete their entire third year clinical curriculum. This is the second year in a row that 32 TUSM students have spent their third year at Baystate.
