This website is a project of the University\s+of\s+Arkansas\s+for\s+Medical\s+Sciences’ (UAMS) Regional Programs Division. UAMS is home to Arkansas’ only medical school, as well as many other health career training programs.

We have 8 regional centers that extend UAMS resources throughout the state. Our mission is to improve the supply and distribution of healthcare professionals across Arkansas, with special emphasis on the needs of rural communities.

We believe that Arkansas students are the best answer to the future healthcare needs of Arkansas communities!

A health career recruiter is based at each of the regional centers, offering a variety of programs and resources to connect students with careers in healthcare and to support students in achieving their personal goals. We seek to inform students of all ages about the many health-related programs and opportunities that exist across Arkansas.

To find the recruiter in your area, use this health career recruiter directory.

Programs and resources are available in all regions of the state. Whether you’re a teacher, parent or student, we encourage you to take a look at our Programs and Resources page.  From there, please contact the recruiter in your area for more specifics.

If you or your family need a primary care doctor contact the UAMS Family Medical Center closest to you.
