Program Description
Our Family Medicine Residency Program started in 1973 and in 2020 moved to our new clinic home in south central Phoenix, where our diverse team of residents and faculty care for multicultural patients in a Federally Qualified Health Center. We embrace Creighton University’s goal of being “men and women for others” through service to our patients and community. We also share the mission of Valleywise Health, which is to “provide exceptional care, without exception, every patient, every time.” We offer POCUS, MAT, service trips to Mexico, pediatrics at Phoenix Children's and a group of residents that become like family. Please see our website for further information about our curriculum, our aims and our faculty. Thank you so much for your interest in our program!
