MGH Family Medicine Residency Program welcomes
7 new residents, including Marquette and Houghton natives
The Family
Medicine Residency Program, a service of Marquette General
Health System, has selected seven new residents for entry into
the three-year residency program.
The program's purpose is to train family medicine physicians to
become competent in practicing medicine in a rural setting, such
as the Upper Peninsula.
Each year, new residents are selected for admission into the program.
Residents are selected based on certain requirements, such as
dedication to family medicine and primary care, the desire to
treat a wide variety of patients, emphasis in promoting preventative
care and a desire to practice rural medicine.
Since its inception more than 25 years ago, the program has produced
123 graduates, many who continue to practice in the U.P.
The education and backgrounds of this year's incoming residents
are highly diverse and contribute to the desired cultural environment
