    Program Description

    The Family Medicine Residency Program at Eastern Maine Medical Center offers a well rounded education with an emphasis on preventative care in a rural setting. Our tertiary care facility expands that focus by providing resident physicians the opportunity to work with primary care and specialty physicians caring for a large patient population. Our association with the University of Maine's Athletic Department ensures those interested in Sports Medicine are fully qualified, and the diversity of our faculty keep resident physicians up to date on all areas of Family Medicine, from obstetrics to child care, from chronic disease management to palliative care. In addition we offer Fellowships in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine and Hospice and Palliative Care Medicine.
