Internal Medicine Residency

Welcome to Freeman Internal Medicine

Confident. Compassionate. Capable. 

At Freeman Internal Medicine, we strike a balance between didactic education and hands-on clinical experience, preparing our physicians to be both board-certified and practice-ready. Our program is designed to train you in full-spectrum internal medicine, equipping you for success in diverse practice settings—from rural healthcare to major academic centers.

Our mission is to help you become the doctor you envision — confident, compassionate, and capable of handling anything that life and medicine may throw your way. We are committed to guiding and supporting you every step of the journey.

We are proud to maintain a culture rooted in inclusion, teamwork, and wellness. Our staff and residents are truly a family. We believe that a healthy, happy doctor is the best doctor, and we actively support wellness through collaboration and empowering our residents. Our residents work closely with faculty and administration to ensure that the training program evolves to meet the needs of each class.
