Affinia Healthcare Program
About This Program
Our program trains Family Medicine physicians to care for diverse populations in resource-limited settings, focusing on interprofessional teamwork and community-focused care. The cornerstone of our training is the Primary Care and Community Medicine experience, spanning all three years of residency and focusing on longitudinal outpatient care. You will also lead hospitalist services at Christian Hospital and St. Louis Children's, and deliver your own patients at DePaul's Family Birthplace.
