Family Medicine: Curriculum

JPS Family Medicine Curriculum is geared toward providing residents with a broad base of knowledge that will enable them to enter any area of family medicine. "I came here because I wanted to be a well-rounded family physician, able to manage pediatric and OB, as well as adult patients," said Tuan Nguyen, DO, "When I assume my own practice in a rural, underserved area, I know I'll be ready."
