of Colorado Family Medicine Residency
I love training Family Doctors at the University of Colorado Health Sciences
Center and Denver Health Medical Center. The positive aspects of training here
are too numerous to count, but here are some of my favorites.
- Our Residents– Our skilled and dedicated residents
carry the pride of our specialty into our Academic Medical Center. They work
side by side with house staff of all specialties sharing skills, experiences,
and mutual respect. In this University environment our Residents are important
role models for students of all health professions.
- Our Faculty – As Program Director I am incredibly
fortunate to have so many outstanding faculty dedicated to educating residents.
Our faculty of Physicians, Nurse Practitioners, PA’s, Behavioral Scientists,
Educational Specialists and Pharmacologists have tremendous strengths in behavior
change, advanced obstetrical skills, diabetes, women’s health, sports
medicine, rural medicine, practice management, chronic care, research, international
medicine, community outreach, indigent care, pediatrics, procedural skills
and on and on. Visit the faculty section of our website to view the breadth,
depth and vast experience of this amazing collection of people.
- Our Department of Family Medicine - The DFM at the University
of Colorado has been a national leader since the beginning of the specialty
of Family Medicine. Under the leadership of Department Chair Frank deGruy,
the department is forging the many skills and relationships that will make
the Future of Family Medicine concepts into a reality. Our residency enjoys
a seat at the center of collaborations between the University of Colorado,
Denver Health and numerous community organizations. The Future of Family Medicine
begins at the University of Colorado’s Department of Family Medicine.

Residency and our AF Williams and Lowry clinics provide skilled and dedicated
service to keep our organizations running and provide important educational
