Bethesda Family Medicine is an energetic community-based program with an emphasis on internal medicine and pediatrics. Residents work side by side in the busy family medicine center with the faculty. Pediatrics rotations are done at the world class Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center where our residents work together with pediatric residents. Scholarly activity is required and much support is given to accomplish this task.
