The Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine currently sponsors two Family Medicine Residency Training Programs, one in a urban setting and one in a rural setting.
Plans are underway to develop additional rural training programs in the near future.
The OSU Family Medicine Residency is an AOA approved program designed to accommodate the individual learning needs of osteopathic physicians who have completed an AOA approved internship. This two-year program has 18 approved slots and is focused on comprehensive medical care with particular emphasis on the family unit. A fast-track Internship is available through Tulsa Regional Medical Center in Tulsa. The core of knowledge and procedural skills of the specialist in family practice prepares the physician for a unique role as a personal physician who provides care and coordinates health care delivery. Resident physicians also attend weekly lectures and presentations on pertinent medical topics.
