Department of Family Medicine

The Department of Family Medicine at the UC Riverside School of Medicine provides residents with outstanding training and skill development. We pride ourselves in delivering care that is evidence-based, culturally aware, and patient-centered. Residents can expect to build community, develop autonomy, and grow as leaders.

The Family Medicine Residency Program strengthens and improves access to primary care throughout Southern California’s Inland Empire. Residents will gain experience at Dignity Health St. Bernardine Medical Center, Riverside University Health System, and UCR Health. This broad experience will expose residents to the versatility and wide-ranging scope of primary care while also meeting the diverse needs of the local community.

Dignity Health St. Bernardine Medical Center is a 342-bed, not-for-profit health care facility, which provides high-quality, affordable, innovative, and compassionate care. It promotes healing, wholeness, and advocacy for social change to meet the needs of a growing community.
