Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine

The Central Wisconsin Residency Program (CWPRP) is a four-year training program based in the communities of Central Wisconsin: Wausau, Steven’s Point, Rhinelander, Wisconsin Rapids and Tomah. Our program offers the best of both worlds small and big, community and academia with a balanced life style. While based in the communities of central Wisconsin, our residents receive didactic teaching through lectures, seminars and case conferences through the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) in Milwaukee. We place a strong emphasis on psychotherapy training for well-rounded psychiatrists. Residents will have a longitudinal experience to work with patients for several years.

If a commitment to community psychiatry with a strong academic institution and a balanced lifestyle are important to you and your family, we encourage you to apply to the Central Wisconsin program. Learn more about the Central Wisconsin Residency program by viewing the Program Brochure (PDF).
