Why Affinia Healthcare
Our Residency’s Vision:
- To train Family Medicine physician leaders who practice high-quality, patient-centered care informed by the biopsychosocial model and who are representative of the communities they serve.
- To foster the skills, compassion, and resilience required to care for under-resourced and marginalized populations.
- To develop training opportunities that emphasize partnership with community organizations, enable learning through service, and encourage enduring investment in the local community.
Program Highlights
Mission-driven Care
Affinia Healthcare is a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), ensuring care is provided regardless of a patient’s ability to pay. In our residency, patient care and residents’ education take priority over financial considerations.
Trailblazing Opportunity
As a member of our initial classes, you will help shape the program while developing unique collaborations with faculty and gaining valuable leadership skills.
Comprehensive Training
Residents will train alongside a broad network of specialists—including obstetricians, pediatricians, sports medicine physicians, and psychiatrists—building full-spectrum Family Medicine expertise.
Diverse Patient Population
Residents will serve a wide range of cultural and socioeconomic groups, including the predominantly Black and Hispanic communities of North St. Louis County and immigrants from around the world.
Commitment to Wellness and Work-life Balance
Weekly resident support time, annual retreats, and social gatherings will help foster relationships, manage stress, and support well-being. Residents will develop the skills and resilience required to sustain a rewarding career in Family Medicine.
