Abstract:
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:We describe the development of an urban track in family medicine residency designed to recruit a high percentage of minority students and promote their future practice in urban, underserved areas of Milwaukee. We report here on the residents and their first practice location and compared this information to what occurred in our original "main" residency program. METHODS:Information about the program's development was obtained through testimonials from faculty and residency graduates and review of the original accreditation application to the Residency Review Committee. Information about the residents and their practice locations was obtained from the National Resident Matching Program and graduate placement data. RESULTS:The goal of training more minority doctors in Milwaukee was met, with eight of 16 (50%) residents at our urban-track site from minority groups. This compared to only 12% at our main program. Thirty-eight percent of graduates stayed to practice in an underserved area, compared to only 21% in our main program. CONCLUSIONS:Development of an urban track for our family medicine residency increased the number of minority physicians trained and the number of physicians practicing in underserved areas after graduation.
