Wilderness medicine retreat with the R1s and R3s. Activities include quinzee (snow cave) building for a warm place to sleep, fire starting, ice fishing, a mega code, and everything winter survival! Added bonus is time spent with incredible humans! One of our favorite events of the year and something that makes this program so special! ❤️

Some of the scenes from beautiful Toksook Bay Alaska.

When on rural rotations we get the opportunity to travel to remote villages and experience the community and provide much needed health care. Some villages dont have providers at all. Most villages are fortunate enough to have community health aides but unfortunately not all. The people are incredible, kind, and resilient. What a joy it was to spend time in this beautiful village.

If you want to learn more about community health aides send us a message or comment below. Alaska is so unique and the only place in the country try to have CHAs.

Intern spotlight!

Dr. Matthew Collicott, DO

Hometown: West Lafayette, IN

Hobbies: Wakeboarding, snowboarding, weightlifting, trail running, and recently started mountain biking! I love watching my local sports teams (Purdue Boilermakers, Pacers, and Colts). More than anything, I cherish spending time with my incredible friends and family.

Why AKFMR?
Training: An unopposed residency focused on full-scope family medicine at a large tertiary care center – very unique!
Location: Alaska is truly a wonderful place to live! See the last two pictures for proof – I took the second-to-last one shortly after crossing the border into AK from Canada. The outdoor opportunities available to residents here are truly endless. AK really is the world’s biggest playground, and I can’t wait to explore as much as possible over the next 3+ years… I think my dog (Samson) feels the same way :) 
People: The community within our residency is what makes this place special. The diversity of backgrounds, ideas, personalities, and skills creates an ideal learning environment. Most importantly, the support among residents, faculty, and staff is unmatched.
