As a public health student and current medical school student, I'm left wondering what is OHSU doing to help ensure a viable, retainable, primary care physician workforce in Oregon for the future?  Where are the incentives to practice primary care?  Where is the recruitment?  Primary care shortages are rampant in this country (especially Oregon), yet as an informed student, I see only limmited efforts to address this.
