Our Family Practice Residency Program is a central part of the Northwestern University Medical School, Department of Family Medicine. The program is university-administered, but community based at Glenbrook Hospital. The curriculum combines longitudinal and block experiences in inpatient and outpatient setting to maximize Family Practice resident learning. The longitudinal format allows preceptor and patient continuity for the individual residents.
