One of the most challenging and rewarding professions a person can undertake is one in the medical field. There's so much that goes into professional medical care, on top of so many varying areas of expertise. Luckily for the resident students of Largo, they don't have to travel far from home to get a quality education in medicine and healthcare services. The booming downtown Largo area features a top-notch medical center specializing in on-the-job training for its students.

The sub-programs offered are accredited by the American Osteopathic Association for a number of medical positions. The main purpose of these programs is to offer residents a chance to apply the knowledge and skills they've acquired over the course of a 4-year medical program while integrating the critical thinking necessary to handle real-life situations, as well as making high-quality healthcare a habitual practice for the students in training.

The Largo Medical Center began its journey into the education realm in 2008 with 9 resident programs and only 44 physicians in training at the time. Since then, there have been an additional 4 programs integrated and a significant increase in trainees to 118 in 2011. The overall number of staff members has also increased twice over! It's safe to say the leap was well worth it and the programs offered continue to increase in both popularity and practicality.
