Each resident will have a full day of continuity clinic per week during “O” months at one our main continuity clinic sites: Froedtert East Clinic, VA, or Sixteenth Street Clinic. At each of these clinics, residents are supported by nationally recognized primary care clinician-educator faculty and will care for a panel of patients over time, learning the joys of care continuity and developing close, trusting relationships with their patients.

Starting January of intern year, residents pick up another half-day of clinic per week during “O” months geared toward their interests. The program director will help each resident identify a clinic that supports their career interests. Examples of third clinics are: community-based primary care clinic, Inclusion Clinic (LGBT Primary care clinic), Sixteenth Street Community Health Center, Infectious Diseases clinics, and many others that may fit your needs.

Each intern will be expected to develop an individualized learning plan to hone their skills in their area of focus. Examples of areas of focus include HIV, women’s health, physician leadership, health policy, LGBTQ Health, addiction medicine, clinician-educator, and complex care but can include any area the resident desires to focus on. The ambulatory care tract program director will guide residents as they develop this plan.

Ambulatory care residents will have a unique, bi-monthly academic half day focused on important ambulatory care topics to prepare residents for practice in ambulatory care. The focuses of these meetings include leadership development, systems-based practice, and evidence-based practice. These meetings will be led by experts in these areas of practice.

This block is a 3-month block during the PGY-3 year dedicated toward building the clinical skills necessary for success in a career in ambulatory medicine. Residents have the opportunity to tailor the rotation to their career interests with flexibility in didactics and clinical opportunities to better prepare them for their own practice. There are additional opportunities to volunteer, to do research, and for mentorship during the ACB. The ambulatory care program director supports residents in designing these blocks.

Individuals in the Women’s Health focus will have opportunities to learn procedural skills including colposcopies, IUD insertions and removals, Nexplanon insertions and removals, endometrial biopsies, etc.
