Outpatient Family Medicine Center

This rotation consists of three half-block rotations in each of the first, second, and third years. Training is in our Family Medicine Center and is specifically devoted to the focus of development of skills in an outpatient setting. During this rotation, residents spend additional time in their continuity clinics to help develop skills in practice and time management, billing and coding, management of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and chronic anticoagulation, and procedures. One of the goals of this rotation as well is to increase efficiency from both a patient volume perspective and a management of completing notes in a timely fashion to more mimic patient loads that residents will see post-graduation. While on this rotation, residents also receive extra training in outpatient procedures, such as: colposcopy, skin lesion removal, pulmonary function testing, LEEP, and more through a weekly procedure clinic run in the FMC.
