The FMRP in Savannah combines the assets of an opposed program with the advantages of a large comm. hosp. Savannah is frequently referred to as a secret. It is located on the Atlantic Coast of GA; a stone throw (across the Savannah River) from South Carolina. Downtown features horse drawn carriage rides among the moss draped oak tree squares. The Atlantic Ocean is accessed at Tybee Island and Beach, 20 minutes from the Family Medicine Center.
