About the Program

The AdventHealth Sebring Family Medicine Residency is a 24 Resident Program (8-8-8). The program is established within AdventHealth Sebring which serves the Heartland region. The Core faculty and other teaching faculty are experienced family medicine and other specialty clinicians and supervisors cumulatively with hundreds of years of clinical and practice experience. The goal of AdventHealth Sebring’s Family Medicine Residency program is to train family physicians who will be able to provide continuous and comprehensive care across the lifespan to patients and families. We believe that family physicians can handle more than 90 percent of health problems seen in the model family practice center. Our goal is to produce the finest family physicians to meet the personal and population health needs of our South Central Florida Region. At AdventHealth we believe that everyone deserves their own family physician to meet their ongoing healthcare needs.

Care You Can Count On

Right in the Florida Heartland

AdventHealth Sebring has offered personalized healing and leading-edge treatments right in the Florida Heartland since 1948. Our three hospital locations in Sebring, Lake Placid, and Wauchula actively promote the eight universal aspects of CREATION Life — Choice, Rest, Environment, Activity, Trust, Interpersonal Relationships, Outlook, and Nutrition. That means patients get a choice in their care decisions, including the option for a second opinion. Patients and their visitors can take a moment for quiet reflection and uplift their outlook in our hospital chapels. We also extend our mission throughout Florida's Heartland, partnering with local organizations and missions that help everyone in our community live healthier lives.
