Life as a ResidentOur program thrives thanks to one unique factor: our people. From our faculty to our residents, we are a close-knit group that views ourselves as a family. That includes significant others and children, too. We’re better as a team, and we help one another grow. From shared inside jokes to career-defining moments, we live this experience together.

The experience here is so comprehensive. When I pictured being a family doctor, I imagined doing ‘everything’ – and here, you do everything. — Chad Murphy, M.D. |
This is an incredible place to do a family medicine residency! Our people are the BEST (a cliché, but true) and my training has been individualized to my future goals (full-spectrum family medicine with OB!). I enjoy going to work every day. — Whitney Mack, D.O. |
I chose this program because it not only exceeded my educational goals, but during my interview I felt as if I were at home, laughing with the faculty and residents. I did not find quite the same thing anywhere else. — Melanie Andrews, M.D. |
