Three-year (36-month) community-based Family Medicine residency at Northeast Georgia Medical Center in Gainesville, serving patients from 19 counties in suburban-rural northeast Georgia. It uses a 'clinic first' model in which residents build their own continuity panel across the lifespan, with required procedure month and urgent care rotations. Didactics are protected Wednesday 12-5 pm, with monthly POCUS, simulation/OSCE, and a three-year CoRE longitudinal curriculum. Areas of concentration include POCUS, obesity and global health. Curriculum also includes leadership, behavioral health, geriatrics with nursing home rounds, and community medicine.
