Our residency program has many opportunities for medical students interested in family medicine. We instruct second year students from University of Maryland during their Introduction to Clinical Medicine course. Students learn physical diagnosis and perfect their ability to obtain a complete history and physical and develop an assessment and plan in preparation for third year.

We also have students rotate in our department during their third and fourth years of medical school. Two students from the University of Maryland come every month for their core family medicine rotation at MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center. In addition, we accept students from various institutions for elective rotations. Rotations are four weeks in length and can be a combination of outpatient and inpatient experiences.

Priority will be given to medical students enrolled in an LCGME accredited medical school in the USA or Canada who are also:

• in their fourth year of medical school and applying to family medicine residency programs through ERAS.
  OR
• in their third year of medical school and have an interest in pursuing a career in family medicine.

Application materials include:

• Demographic Form (PDF)
