What our graduates are saying:

I am really pleased that I completed this year. This has been one of the most worthwhile learning endeavours I have taken on. I have a broader base of colleagues with whom I can discuss images and my confidence in the ER, delivery room and clinic has been vastly improved. Thank you!

Dr. Aedes Scheer

Rural Generalist
Northwest Territories

One of the best learning experiences I’ve had in my career. Really enjoyed the interactive daily teaching, and the ability to acquire practical new skills over time that can change the outcome and the management of my patients in a rural setting.

Dr. Erich van der Linde

Rural Generalist
Brooks, AB

The RUF was an amazing year that has boosted my ultrasound skills. It is comprehensive yet becomes uniquely tailored to your needs as a rural provider. The distributed learning model helps you tackle the year on your own schedule. I feel much more comfortable incorporating a broad array of POCUS scans into my practice.

Dr. Jake Salituri 

GP-Anesthesia
Southern Ontario

I have to say that this fellowship is making me a better ER doc as I am challenging myself to take deeper dives into situations that involve US and more. Thanks for this!!
