The best way to check out our residency program is to do an
acting internship (AI). This will give you an opportunity to
work closely with residents from all 3 years of training. You
will be an integral part of a team of resident and attending
physicians who provide the care for patients on our Family
Practice Inpatient Service. You will have primary responsibility
for the care of your assigned patients, the opportunity to work
in the family practice outpatient clinic, and can attend conferences
and seminars in a real-time experience of what our program has
to offer for residency training. Working closely with the residents
will give you a sense of the groups' personality and allows
you to assess for yourself the all-important subjective fit
this program has for you. Over the course of a month you will
have ample opportunity to inquire about rotation specifics and
life in the residency. The best time to do these rotations is
in the first 6 months of the 4th year or the last 6 months of
your third year. A fuller description of the Family Practice
Inpatient Service can be found under "Training
Sites".
Eligibility requirements and the application process for
visiting students who seek electives at UNC's School of Medicine
can be found on the website page link to the
Office of Student Affairs. If you are interested in more information
about how to set up a rotation with our FP Inpatient Service
specifically, contact the Administrative Assistant for Medical
Student Programs, Carolyn
Joines, at 919-966-2824.
