Program Contact
The General Practice Residency at HCMC provides general practice residents with advanced clinical training in a multidisciplinary environment. Residents gain broad experience in hospital, clinic, and community health settings, learn the latest materials and techniques, and build on both clinical and practice management skills.
Our program is designed to ensure individual mentoring and superior staff support, while promoting development of advanced clinical judgment and proficiency. Multidisciplinary faculty, available onsite, provide a comprehensive, team-oriented, and patient-focused approach to oral healthcare. Residents interact directly with specialists in oral surgery, pediatric dentistry, prosthodontics, endodontics, periodontics, and temporal mandibular disorders and craniofacial pain. Our integration within the HCMC healthcare system gives residents a unique opportunity to collaborate with medical professionals who share a commitment to excellence in patient care.
The program moved into a new, state-of-the-art, 31 chair dental clinic, in the hospital's new Ambulatory and Same Day Surgery building in March 2018.
