Residency Program  

Allen Dobson, MD, Chair

Cabarrus Family Medicine is a unique multi-clinic group of 25 family medicine faculty committed to excellence and providing comprehensive family healthcare including obstetrics. This is truly a residency within a practice, with outpatient training taking place in four private family medicine clinics located in the four municipalities of Cabarrus County. With over 70,000 patients, the family medicine clinics and faculty offer excellent practice-based learning for residents. Specialty services include a psychological and behavioral health practice and a Sports Medicine and Injury Center. Inpatient training occurs at NorthEast Medical Center, named by Solucient as a Top 100 Hospital in the category of teaching hospitals for the past four years. As the only residents at NEMC, CFMR residents get to work and learn directly from many of the quality physicians on the 310 member active medical staff. The program is developing a sports medicine fellowship to begin in July 2006. The program is a also site for the required third year family medicine clerkship and hosts about 30 students a year for outpatient family medicine and acting intership rotations. Located just northeast of Charlotte, NC, residents can enjoy living in a mid-size city while having easy access to the many cultural and sports activities available in Charlotte.
