Providing Top-Notch Medical Education in the Booming Hub Of Odessa
Welcome to our site, take some time, and explore around. The Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center's Odessa campus is growing continuously. Our newest building, the academic classroom building, showcases our continued growth. This facility has approximately 51,000 square feet; it houses the Medical Center Hospital Foundation Conference Center, research labs, classrooms, and administrative offices.
This TTUHSC regional campus, located in Odessa, is a graduate medical education site and now is home to residencies in Internal Medicine, Family and Community Medicine and Obstetrics and Gynecology as well as clinical rotations and patient care in the departments of General Surgery, Psychiatry, and Pediatrics.
We provide medical education to third and fourth-year medical students in all six core specialties, including family medicine, internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry, and surgery.
One of our key offerings is that medical students and resident physicians receive a large amount of personal attention from our faculty in an intimate educational setting.
"Whether you are a patient, faculty member or medical student in search of residency, I invite you to explore our site. I feel confident that you can find the information you're looking for. However, please do not hesitate to visit our accommodating campus or contact me for assistance."
