The Southwest Georgia
Family Medicine Residency Program considers the training of medical students
to be an integral part of its educational mandate and so we are pleased to offer
many different types of clinical experiences to medical students at various
levels of training, including
- summer clinical
studentships in family medicine for students who have completed their first
year of pre-clinical training,
- core and elective
clerkships in general family medicine,
- elective clerkships
in rural medicine, precepted by our associated faculty, and
- elective clerkships
in sports medicine, precepted by our sports medicine faculty
During their clerkships,
students will have the opportunity to see patients who are varied in both demographics
and medical problems. Students will interact closely with faculty and residents
and will be able to observe a variety of approaches and attitudes with respect
to the practice of medicine.
Accommodations
are usually provided at the Crimmins House, named after Dr. Laurence Crimmins,
former Georgia Family Physician of the Year and a retired member of our teaching
faculty. This beautifully restored 1890’s Victorian cottage is located less
than a block from the hospital and has nine single rooms with private or semi-private
baths.
