We are part of an innovative program offered by the ABFM. This allows us to divide your inpatient and outpatient continuity care into continuous weeks. We feel it is important for you to learn the skills associated with caring for patients before asking you to care for both patient panels simultaneously.  The rotations marked are part of this initiative.
