Published October 12, 2009 09:26 am - Program aims to put docs in rural areas STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Oklahoma State University's medical school has long tried to send graduates to smaller communities to practice. The school has a new program in which students can get additional training in rural medicine. Associate Dean Dr. William Pettit says the program is targeting students who grew up in small Oklahoma towns so they can be groomed to return. One student in the program, 23-year-Charity Holder from Coalgate, says she'll be finished medical school at about the time the town doctor is ready to retire. Holder says that doctor at times sees up to 100 patients in a day. She says the hard work and lower pay would be worth it if she can be at home. ___ Information from: Tulsa World, http://www.tulsaworld.com
