As a new program, the Family Medicine Residency provides a unique opportunity for physician trainees who want to help cultivate their clinical educational experience. Innovative curricula and resources such as a new state-of-the-art skills lab will support our education programs. With low physician-to-resident ratios, trainees will gain valuable hands-on learning experience.
While the basic clinical structure of the residency is similar to those participating in the CORE, Fairfield Medical Center is emphasizing the following:
Information technology in daily practice
Navigating the business of medicine (including office set up and management)
Qualities we are looking for:
We are most interested in residents who would be engaged in building a new training program, one that seeks to prepare competent and passionate family physicians, having the savvy to lead in quality-conscious clinical care as well as the business of healthcare delivery.
