I've been asked to post this:
Direct Primary Care occupies a blind spot in formal medical education. As a faculty physician in a family medicine residency program, I believe that if the DPC movement is to have meaningful long-term growth among today’s students and residents, it needs to be included in the curriculum at both the medical school and residency levels.
To this end, I am working on building a DPC curriculum for residencies, with the goals of 1) providing a thorough understanding of the DPC culture of care, and 2) providing resources and direction to residents who may be interested in future DPC practice. To develop this curriculum, I am seeking input via the attached survey from FM-trained DPC physicians who are relatively close to their residency years.
If you are a family medicine-trained DPC physician who 1) began practicing in the DPC model within 5 years of residency graduation, and 2) have been in your DPC practice for no more than 5 years, please consider supporting the future of DPC by completing the attached anonymous survey. It should take about three minutes to complete, and it will be invaluable in the creation of a meaningful DPC residency curriculum! The survey will be open until Friday, March 6th.
The link to the survey is:
