This general education is provided by residency faculty with extensive support from community preceptors. The diverse skills and unique interest of our faculty also allow residents to emphasize areas of special interest. These may range from sports medicine, rural medicine, geriatrics, or wellness to any of a variety of electives. Three post-graduate sports medicine positions are also offered yearly.
We are fortunate enough to be situated within the Moses Cone Health Care System, a superior, multi-facility organization which provides us with a state of the art Family Practice Center.
Finally, we place emphasis on encouraging residents and their families to lead a balanced life by taking advantage of the recreational and educational opportunities available in our community. We want to prepare each graduate of our program to be a good spouse, nurturing parent, and healthy individual, as well as an excellent family physician who will be an asset to the community in which they practice.
