    Program Description

    We proudly announce that we are affiliated with the Tulane University School of Medicine. We look forward to the opportunities presented by this strengthened relationship. Our program is the only medical residency sponsored by this not-for-profit community hospital that is a medical care leader in the area. The program stresses cost effective, comprehensive care that has the well-being of the patient as its focus. Residents and experienced faculty work side by side caring for patients with diverse problems in a modern family medicine center. We are now using an electronic health record for all encounters in the FMC.
