"At Ohio State, I feel that the Family Medicine Residency Program has the ability to offer a very individualized program for all of its residents. We have the luxury of being a university-based program but practice in a community hospital. With the wide variety of electives, including the the longitudinal coursework, I can tailor the residency to fit my needs and prepare me best for the way I see my future career path heading while still getting OSU’s world-class training. That is individualized health-care at its finest, and that is what The Ohio State University is all about."

Mike Donaworth, MD PGY 3

I chose OSU because of the tradition of great training. My family has received degrees in various fields from here and I knew I would get great training at the Family Medicine Program. We train in underserved communities , all while having the backing of a strong academic institution. I also chose OSU for the sports medicine opportunities. I love having the opportunity to cover high school games as well as the opportunity to work with elite athletes at one of the top athletic universities in the nation.

Academic Focus

Our Academic Focus provides a unique opportunity for residents in both the University Track and Urban Track to prepare for a career in Academic Family Medicine.  This track focuses on teaching, leadership, research and scholarship and is designed to lead to a post graduate MPH or MBA degree.
