Northeast Georgia Medical Center Family Medicine Residency Program
The Northeast Georgia Medical Center (NGMC) Family Medicine Residency program is a three-year training program offering residents the full scope of training and clinical experience necessary to comprehensively manage a population of patients throughout the lifespan. In our suburban-rural, community-based program, residents will have necessary hands-on experience directing care to prevent disease and become experts in chronic disease management.
During the 36 month training, resident physicians build and manage a panel of patients across the lifespan. From delivering babies and performing newborn care to taking care of a critically ill senior and continuing that relationship in the nursing home, family medicine is there delivering the right care at the right time.
Continuity is the greatest teacher you will ever have, and this program based on the “clinic first” model delivers. The relationships you have with your patients help improve their outcomes, and the relationships you have with the faculty improve your training. We mentor and equip you with a diverse skill set to ensure that you are both competent and confident in your future work.
