Where current residents went to medical school
Counted from the program's own residents page (page 1 · page 2 · page 3) on Nov 15, 2026. We count lines that name a country or medical school, not people, and we do not store names, so treat the numbers as approximate and check the page.
The page did not name medical schools in a form we could read.
