Special Features
The Keck Medicine Family Medicine Residency resides in a leading academic healthcare system with a rapidly expanding primary care infrastructure in the heart of Los Angeles. Our program follows a 'clinic-first' model where we believe the clinic is the curriculum. We have two continuity clinic sites at an academic center and an FQHC that offer broad clinical training in different healthcare systems and patient populations.
