What Makes Our MHS Program Stand Out

Med School-Level Training in 10 Months

MHS courses are taught by the same faculty who teach Touro Nevada's osteopathic medicine, physician assistant, and physical therapy students, using the same state-of-the-art labs and facilities.

A Direct Competitive Edge

Completing the MHS program strengthens your application for Touro Nevada's DO program and other programs, including PA and PT, with a built-in GPA grade replacement policy for AACOMAS applicants.

More Than Academics

With access to campus research opportunities, student support resources, and an interprofessional learning environment, MHS builds the habits, confidence, and resume depth that professional school admissions committees look for.
