Description

The Department of Family Medicine (DFM) at the University of Washington School of Medicine leverages the transformative power of family medicine to create more just and equitable healthcare for all through education, scholarship, and clinical care. Come join us as we seek to transform primary care and build an integrative delivery model that puts the patient first and seeks to care for the whole person, family and community. 

We are committed to three core tenets: 1) ensuring high quality, rigorous, patient-centered education for students and residents; 2) providing compassionate, high caliber, evidence-based clinical patient care; and 3) maintaining an internationally recognizable research organization focused on increasing the quality, effectiveness, accessibility, and sustainability of primary care. The DFM promotes diversity, health equity and inclusivity. We value the unique talents and contributions of each individual and strive to build a diverse faculty and staff representative of the communities we serve.
