PRISMA Health/University Of South Carolina SOM Columbia Program

Program Description

Since 1977, the Family Medicine Residency Program based at Prisma Health Richland Hospital has taken pride in training more than 300 successful family physicians for South Carolina and the nation. We partner closely with the University of South Carolina School of Medicine - Columbia to create an ideal "hybrid" training environment in a busy community hospital supported by academic resources. This provides access to specialized care, fellowship training, research / grants, professional development and more, not to mention teaching and mentorship opportunities working directly with medical students and other health professional students in our clinics and hospital. Learn more at: https://sc.edu/study/colleges_schools/medicine/research/clinical_departments/family_and_preventive_medicine/ Our graduates practice in all types of settings, including our outpatient family medicine clinic, the hospital, the home, the classroom, in long-term care facilities and on the athletic field. Our strong history provides an excellent foundation for preparing you for modern practice. Our goal as a program is to provide the mentorship and experiences for every resident to become exactly what they hope to be as a family physician! We also offer a rural continuity clinic track in nearby town of Winnsboro in Fairfield County.
