Family and Community Medicine
The Family Medicine Integrated Residency program involves selected fourth-year medical students in the life of the residency program. This program includes a continuity care experience in one of our Family Medicine clinics in Columbia, Fayette, or Fulton and residency level rotations in hospital settings. Once accepted into the program, the Integrated Resident (IR) takes on intern responsibilities during their 3-6 “residency months” scattered throughout their fourth year of medical school. IRs participate in resident-level rotations (receiving both medical school and residency credit when available), attend weekly resident meetings and didactic sessions as well as start building a patient panel by working one-on-one with a third-year family medicine residents in clinic. This has been an outstanding educational experience for students confident that they wish to complete family medicine training at MU. Applications are available each year in February and the new class of Family Medicine Integrated Residents is announced on May 15th. For more information, please contact:
