Chapel Hill
NC
Urban Program with a Rural Track
Family Medicine

The FQHC Track provides residents with their continuity experience at a Federally Qualified Health Center and the opportunity to work with a higher volume of Spanish speaking patients and rural populations. The FQHC Track is an exceptional opportunity for residents interested in a career focused on: the care of underserved/under-resourced populations, engagement in community health, and innovation and leadership in health care delivery.

The FQHC Track is designed for residents looking to enhance their competency in caring for diverse patient populations that have often experienced significant health disparities. Residents pursuing the FQHC Track will gain a deeper knowledge of the social determinants of health and explore potential remedies that address these issues on a local, regional, and national scale.
