East Jefferson General Hospital Program
About This Program
The EJGH Family Medicine Residency Program is located in a nearby New Orleans' suburb at a community hospital which has recently become the primary teaching hospital for Tulane University School of Medicine. Our residents benefit from the hybrid experience of working at a community hospital with our academic partner. Our busy outpatient family medicine practice serves as our hub for resident learning and serves a diverse group of patients from the New Orleans metropolitan area.
