Karl Bert Fields, MD, Chair
The Moses Cone Family Practice Residency was
one of the first accredited Family Practice Programs in the
United States. Major goals: promote excellence in Family Medicine
education; provide excellent patient service; integrate technology
in all aspects of family medicine education; promote resident
and faculty professional development; and provide community
service to the greater Greensboro area. The residency teaches
24 residents and 3 sports medicine fellows. Approximately
25 third year UNC medical students are educated each year
with approximately eight fourth year students serving as acting
interns for one month on the inpatient service and six to
eight students or residents in the sports medicine rotation.
The sports medicine fellows are taught clinical sports medicine,
are responsible for sports coverage at a high school and a
college as well as local community sporting events, and are
involved in teaching residents and medical students. Each
year the program has had a primary care pharmacy resident,
Athletic Training Students from Guilford College and four
doctoral-level graduate students in psychology from the University
of North Carolina-Greensboro.
