Mission statement & program overview
Mission statement
The Family Medicine Residency Program at Illinois Masonic will excel in the training of family physicians, incorporating state-of-the-art medical management and attention to patients' and residents' psychological well-being. We teach residents the clinical and personal skills they need to become leaders in family medicine, and in the communities in which they will practice. An integral part of our mission is to provide family-focused, community oriented health care to patients of all ages in the urban, ethnically diverse community.
