Current Projects

Residency Training in Primary Care
The residency program of the department provides a full spectrum of family medicine education to residents so that they become fully competent physicians capable of providing high quality care to their patients. Patient care and educational activities focus on what is relevant to the resident's future practices. Their continuity practice occurs at local community health centers: Codman Square Health Center and South Boston Community Health Center. Residency hospital rotations to promote knowledge and skills necessary for a family physician occur at Boston Medical Center. In this way, the residency program is integral to the department's and BMC's effort to improve the level of primary care provided in our community and to provide family medicine services for those to whom this was previously not available.
