About the program
An unopposed family medicine residency founded in 1972 at Piedmont Columbus Regional Midtown Campus, a 583-bed level II trauma center that serves as the referral facility for a 50-mile radius. Residents complete two to three more months of inpatient training than most programs and rotate through on-site departments, including the Bill and Olivia Amos Children's Hospital and the John B. Amos Cancer Center. There are training opportunities with Army family medicine residents at nearby Fort Benning and with fellows from an institution-sponsored Sports Medicine Fellowship run in partnership with VCOM-Auburn.
