FELLOWSHIP IN RURAL FAMILY MEDICINE

Tacoma Family Medicine (TFM) offers four openings for August 1, 2010 in its fellowship in rural family medicine. TFM, a 31 year-old family medicine residency affiliated with the University of Washington, has a strong history of training physicians for rural practice. We are currently in the 19th year of our fellowship in rural family medicine and four fellows are currently participating in the program. Applicants should have previously completed or be finishing a family medicine residency in 2010 and have an interest in rural medicine. The curriculum consists of 6 months of intensive training in high-risk and operative obstetrics and 6 months of electives tailored to the needs of the individual. Elective options include adult and pediatric emergency and inpatient care, medical and surgical specialties, procedural skills, rural preceptorships, neonatology, practice management, etc. As the only civilian residency in Tacoma, Washington, located on beautiful Puget Sound, this is an ideal training site.
