Welcome from Program Director, Jose Villalon-Gomez, MD, MPH
Welcome to the Emory Family Medicine Residency Program!
Emory University is one of the top academic healthcare institutions in the US. Our medical school routinely ranks among the top 25% in the United States, and our healthcare system includes nearly 2,000 physicians and 11 hospitals.
Our program delivers the best of both worlds, training in a community-based clinic and hospital setting while having expert consultations at your fingertips.
Culture
What sets our program apart is the culture. We foster personal, academic, and professional growth in all our residents by making time for bonding outside of regular duties. A few of our group activities include
- Annual retreat
- Regular wellness activities
- Holiday parties
- Trips to the performing arts or sporting events
- Access to Atlanta’s top attractions
Many of our residents join us from different cities, states, and countries, so we make sure to introduce them to all that Atlanta has to offer while providing them a professional and personal support system.
