For Preceptors

The Department of Family and Community Medicine invites you to become adjunct faculty and precept for our six-week family medicine clerkship that prepares students for a career in family medicine. 

We rely heavily on volunteer Family Physicians in private practice to give our students the depth and continuity of clinical experiences they require. This is a unique and rich opportunity for students to develop an understanding of family medicine and hone their skills at diagnosis, physical examination and general patient care.

Community physicians are invited to become adjunct faculty in the Department of Family and Community Medicine. Our adjunct faculty precept for our medical students during their six-week Family Medicine rotation. As an adjunct assistant professor, you will receive a 性奴调教 email account and be able to access our Online Digital Library, where you will find medical journals, clinical keys, database research guides and much more.

The experience of working with you will likely be the highlight of the students' year. In addition, Preceptors report being more enthused and renewed when they have medical students with them.

During the family medicine clerkship, students will follow your schedule except for Wednesdays when they are in class.

In recognition of physicians who agree to precept students, the American Academy of Family Physicians will award CME credits (hour for an hour up to 20). For osteopathic physicians, the American Osteopathic Association also awards continuing medical education credits for physicians serving as preceptors.

We are currently recruiting preceptors for all rotations.
