Each year of the Marquette General Hospital Family Medicine Residency is divided into 13 four week blocks. Through a combination of required and elective rotations, a resident gains a broad-based education in all medical specialty areas. Marquette General is used for most inpatient rotations, while significant time is spent at Peninsula Medical with community physicians for the outpatient rotations. Time may be individually arranged elsewhere to meet special requests or needs, and rural family medicine electives in the Upper Peninsula are strongly encouraged and supported.
 
To learn more about each of the curricular areas, please request a CD of information via e-mail or call 1-800-774-4844
 

Design for Success

First year residents start their training with a four week introduction to residency. This rotation is designed with hands-on experiences to prepare new residents for the predictable, but critical, care situations they will soon face. Residents are guided to develop a relationship with health care team members and learn how the team most effectively works together to provide excellent patient care in the hospital and in the Family Medicine Center.
 
Visits to community support agencies, hands on review of examinations skills, and coaching with hospital information systems all actively prepare residents for their new role.
 
* Thirteen four-week blocks for rotations per year
* Enhanced OB Track available
   

 

Rural Experience

At MGH we are proud of our rural training. Over 90% of our graduates are practicing in federally designated rural areas. To improve resident rural experience, second-year residents do a one-month rural rotation in one of many rural communities.

Osteopathic

As part of Marquette General’s commitment to quality osteopathic medical education we offer a three-year family medicine residency.
 
The first year focuses on building knowledge and skills in patient care based on the philosophy of osteopathic medicine. Manual skills are developed in clinical settings as well as monthly didactic sessions and hospital rounds.
 
Further emphasis is placed on developing competence in medical knowledge, patient care, professionalism, interpersonal and communication skills, practice-based learning and system-based practice. Manual medicine clinic volume supports experiential learning as residents continue to enhance these skills during their second and third year of training.
 
These experiences, and enthusiastic support from faculty and community physicians, help residents graduate from the program as complete osteopathic family physicians.
