The Department of Family Medicine at the Medical College of Georgia (MCG) at Augusta University (AU) sponsors a Rural Track "1+2" Residency Program in collaboration with Memorial Satilla Health in Waycross, GA.

PGY-1 is conducted at Augusta University in Augusta, GA.
PGY-2 and PGY-3 are at Memorial Satilla Health in Waycross, GA.
 ("1+2" = "1" year in Augusta, GA & "2" years in Waycross, GA).

The Satilla MCG Rural Residency Program serves as a response to declining numbers of primary care physicians in this Rural South Georgia community and region and a desire to train primary care physicians in settings that would facilitate the choice of practice in small and rural communities.
