Family Medicine Student Education

A Resource for Medical Students Interested in Family Medicine

Our mission is to educate medical students about the philosophy and practice of Family Medicine through diverse educational opportunities.

The Family Medicine Student Education office is located in Administrative Office Building 1 (AO1) and is a resource for students during all four years of medical school. Our faculty and staff coordinate and direct a number of required courses and electives. Additionally, we provide students with leadership opportunities and research assistantships, coordinate extracurricular activities, and offer career advising in Family Medicine. We hope this web page provides an informative overview of these activities. Please contact us with your questions or comments. Thank you for visiting.

Sincerely,

David Gaspar, MD
Director, Medical Student Education and the Rural and Community Care Clerkship
