Family Medicine Residency
A Commitment to Excellence
Our residency is always changing and growing, but our foundations don’t change.
Training Leaders in Family Medicine
The U-M Medical School Department of Family Medicine Residency program is rooted in the academic advantages of a university-based training while also offering the important experience of community-based care through our continuity clinics and rotations at a community-based hospital. Thanks in part to the diversity of our training base, our residents are extremely well-prepared to work in a myriad of settings upon graduation. Some practice full-scope family medicine including obstetrics. Many continue practicing inpatient adult medicine. The majority of our residents love to teach and continue doing so in their long-term careers, some after pursing advanced training in fellowships. Their practice settings also vary widely, some staying in academia and others taking community-based jobs.
Because our residents seek many different types of jobs, we pride ourselves in being able to prepare them for absolutely anything. We do our best to individualize each resident’s education to give them a unique set of skills that can take them wherever they want to go.
Residency Program Director Jean Wong, MD welcomes future leaders in family medicine to shape the future of the field across patient care, education, and research.
You are valued
I would like to offer a sincere welcome to you, as you consider the University of Michigan for your residency training. If you visit us here in Ann Arbor you will find a group of highly committed, thoughtful, innovative clinicians and educators, and we think you’ll want to stay. We look forward to having you visit us here to see the Michigan way – Go Blue!
Our commitment to our community can also be seen in the choices our residency graduates make – each year several remain here for fellowship, some assume faculty roles and others go on to private practice or care for underserved patients. We are very proud of the footprint our graduates make in the provision of primary care in the state of Michigan, across the nation and even across the world.
Current Residents
We are privileged to work with outstanding residents from the best medical schools around the country. They reflect the camaraderie, commitment to patients, and the highest academic standards that are synonymous with Family Medicine.
