Why Clinic First?

Family medicine clinics training future primary care physicians face significant challenges. Faculty physicians and residents may spend only 1 – 3 half-days per week in clinic, creating obstacles for continuity, access, and team-based care. Disorganized clinic experiences lead to low clinician and staff satisfaction and can cause trainees to abandon plans for careers in primary care. The Clinic First paradigm provides a roadmap for synergistically fulfilling both missions of education and patient care in a way that invigorates the current and future workforce in primary care.
