GENERAL INFORMATION

Thirty residents, nine family physician faculty, two psychologists, and support personnel staff the Swedish Family Medicine residency program. Other clinic faculty include a psychiatrist, consultant pediatrician, cardiologists, orthopedists, podiatrist, and ob/gyn. Call is optional and the student is welcome to work with either the in-patient family medicine team or the senior resident on obstetric call. Many seminars and didactics are offered during the clerkship. The student can also do nursing home visits, visit an alcohol treatment center, spend time in the pain clinic, physical therapy clinic, and work in our lab. Students will work at the Downtown Family Medicine Clinic, a satellite residency-training site run jointly with the Public Health Department - Seattle-King County. The clinic serves the inner-city underserved; women, children, homeless, minority, and refugee patients are aided by the clinic.

Faculty: Dr. Mark Johnson, site coordinator, is responsible for the student coordination. Ms. Amy Bingell, the program administrator, handles the daily student rotation. It is required that you call or email either of them prior to your rotation for necessary preliminary arrangements.
