Learn about The District of Columbia family medicine residencies and what each has to offer. My school doesn't have a family medicine program, so we have amazing community doctors come in and talk to us regularly. One family doctor's anecdote really resonated with me. We're in a major urban center where a lot of people don't understand the value of family medicine.
Congratulations to DCAFP member Dr. Andrea Anderson who won this year's Advocate Award from the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine. The award was conferred this year at the STFM Annual Meeting in Toronto. The award honors an STFM member(s) for outstanding work in political advocacy at the local, state, or national level.
