WELCOME! BIENVENIDOS!
The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) Family Medicine Residency Program at Knapp Medical Center is pleased that you are interested in our program. Our program focuses on comprehensive family-oriented care for an underserved population in South Texas. The residency is designed to emphasize the family medicine continuity setting to care for populations in varying systems, through an appropriate blend of supervised patient care experiences, clinical teaching, and didactic activities. We provide team-based, collaborative, integrated (interprofessional) health care and education to meet the goals of the health care system of the future. The program also takes advantage of the vast array of in-depth expertise and rich resources of the university setting for intensive, focused experiences in other specialties when appropriate. Lastly, we are the only residency program at Knapp Medical Center and our residents work directly with attending physicians in all the specialties, including emergency medicine, critical care, surgery, and radiology. If you want a full-spectrum family medicine experience, please consider our program.
