Welcome to Southern Illinois University School of Medicine Family Medicine Residency Program.
This is a fun place to learn Family Medicine and we hope that this brief glimpse of our "family" entices you to visit our resident and faculty pages for a more in-depth view. We ultimately hope that this introduction encourages you to arrange a two or four week rotation to get a personal look at us and how we function!
Enjoy your visit with us, and please contact us if any questions arise during your tour!
Our Mission:To Train Outstanding Family Physicians.
We accomplish this in an atmosphere of mutual trust and cooperation in ourunopposed communitybasedprogram. This means your education on each rotation will be first-hand with your preceptor(s) without having to compete for instruction with other residents from other specialties! The end results are competent, caring physicians prepared to practice in any area they choose - urban, suburban, rural, or even in a foreign country.
