Our Program Director Says
St. Joseph’s Residency program gives high priority to residents’ personal and family lives. We are located in the heart of the St. Paul/Minneapolis metropolitan area, a great place to live—friendly people, wonderful schools, and endless opportunities for recreation and cultural events.

We are very proud that one of our residents, Michael Hervey, MD, recently received the Resident of the Year award from the Minnesota Academy of Family Physicians at its annual Spring Refresher.
