Brief Description of the Family Medicine Residency Program 

The Family Medicine Residency Program, starting its first intake in Year 2011, will have a 3-year duration similar to the previous MMed (FM) Program. The program aims to equip the resident with educational and clinical experiences in accordance with ACGME-I standards, which focuses on structured training and close supervision.  

The resident will undergo clinical rotations in the hospitals and polyclinics, call-back sessions and teaching sessions that combine foundation teaching, continuity clinics, skills workshops/attachments and community medicine etc. Regular formative assessments will also be introduced to enhance the training progress of the resident.
