Dwight David Eisenhower Army Medical Center Program

Program Description

Since 1973, the Eisenhower Family Medicine Residency Program has honored the tradition of graduating excellent Army Family Physicians who are superb clinicians and leaders in the military and in their communities. Dwight David Eisenhower Army Medical Center (DDEAMC) offers a unique medical center environment where family medicine is both an essential element to its success, and was established as its first residency program. Our residents enjoy the many incredible opportunities that come with a variety of complex medical cases that sharpen their clinical skills and hone their confidence. Residents have immediate access to a dedicated, superb teaching staff, as well as to a wide variety of sub-specialists, broadening their fund of knowledge and assisting them in applying their knowledge to individual situations. They gain mastery in those procedures essential to being an Army Family Physician in the twenty-first century, and a first-class education that readies them for the deployed environment. In the last ten years alone, Eisenhower Family Medicine has distinguished itself as a center of excellence. We have produced more than 40 peer-reviewed publications, 6 book chapters, and an unparalleled 38 presentations at Scientific Assemblies, with 6 resident and 11 staff awards from these meetings. Three of our faculty have received the illustrious Army Physician Recognition Award from the Surgeon General of the Army, and six staff have been recognized as outstanding junior Family Medicine faculty in the nation. Eisenhower Family Medicine continually gains recognition as one of the top teaching sites for USUHS and HPSP medical students. We take seriously the job of educating the future leaders of family medicine. We invite you to visit or rotate with us, as we are convinced that the time you spend here will leave a lasting, positive impression upon you. Come experience the tradition firsthand!
