University of Minnesota Lakewood Family Medicine Residency Programs
Based at Lakewood Health System in Staples, Minnesota, which is an independent, innovation-driven rural health system. The residency offers you a nimble, community-focused training environment with small cohort sizes, individualized mentorship, strong wellness support, and a culture deeply rooted in full-spectrum family medicine and obstetrics excellence.
Curriculum Highlights:
- A longitudinal curriculum with robust acute care and diverse subspecialty electives to equip graduates for full-scope rural practice
- High-volume obstetrics, including high-risk and surgical training to meet expected OB competency at graduation
- Train within an innovative and independent primary care-centered healthcare system that values family medicine
This is a unique program because residents will complete one year at our urban site, the North Memorial Residency Program in Minneapolis, and two years at the rural site in Staples.
