“We are pleased to have Dr. Brandes and Dr. Ortengren on board with us,” said William Santis, MD, Associate Chief Clinical Officer of the Urologic Institute. “Both are well-known to us as they rotated through our health system during their residency. This highlights the benefit of collaborating with other community-based educational partners to provide clinical training to students. We were fortunate to recruit chief urology residents from the last class of graduates from Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center.”
Dr. Ortengren received his medical degree from Tufts University School of Medicine located in Boston, Mass. He completed his urologic surgery residency at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, NH.
