Family Practice Residency Programs
The University of Pittsburgh Department of Family Medicine has an affiliation with the Family Practice Residencies in the UPMC system, which include UPMC McKeesport, UPMC Shadyside and UPMC St. Margaret. The three programs have a total of 88 family practice residents and 7 fellows in various endeavors. Faculty from these residencies are intensely interested in teaching University of Pittsburgh students. The experience and depth of commitment of these teachers is outstanding. Having the ability to place medical students in the residencies assists in achieving the SOM goal to increase the portion of the curriculum in the ambulatory setting and to support the advancement of physician scientist education in the primary care arena.
