We teach medical students throughout all four years of medical school. We are lucky enough to be supported by an academic institution which has recently been recognized as one of the most innovative and highest quality primary care oriented medical schools in the country. Faculty and residents serve as role models for many students interested in Family Practice. The residency program's long history and the large number of graduates who have remained locally have given Family Practice a very enviable position within the community. Recently we have been able to leverage this into a number of exciting educational opportunities.
Resident involvement is crucial to the governance of the residency.
Residents participate equally with faculty on the Executive Committee, Resident Selection Committee, Curriculum Committee and are involved in other residency decision-making functions. We recognize that this is a time of tremendous change and personal growth for young physicians. Our residency structure is based on personal and educational needs and welcomes the challenges associated with adult learning.
