Abstract
With University of New England's larger footprint in Portland, the Biddeford-based university will graduate 200 doctors every year- boosting the annual class size by 35 to take better aim at the growing physician shortage.
After freshly-minted doctors graduate from UNE, more than half go into primary care fields and four out of 10 establish their practices in rural areas.
