Family Medicine Service


While you are on your family medicine service rotation, you care for select patients whose diverse problems mirror those you eventually will manage in your practice, including intensive care, pediatric, gynecologic, psychiatric, surgical and medical patients.  We admit for our attendings and all no-doc patients, and the service follows patients from the Medical ICU to the general medical floors all the way down to our Rehabilitation and Skilled Care Units.  There are typically 20-30 patients on the service and three to four residents.  As a first-year resident, you have primary responsibility for your patients. Attendings do not write orders, you do. As a third-year resident, you make daily work rounds with a first-year resident and are responsible for running the service. A family medicine attending makes daily bedside teaching rounds, and is also present for the daily morning report on new patients admitted the night before.  Behavioral medicine faculty and clinical pharmacology faculty participate in teaching rounds.
