Family Medicine Residency Program
Scottsdale Healthcare's Family Medicine Residency Program was established in
1974. Our community-based program is affiliated with the University of
Arizona College of Medicine. The high standards of training in our program have
been documented through a long history of successful graduates and a 100% pass
rate on the American Board of Family Practice Certification Examination.
