I am wondering why the forum on FM has been so quiet. If you are applying for FM, please gather here and we can exchange informations.

Welcome aboard, everyone. I have a feeling that FM is becoming more competitive too and most programs prefer new graduates out of medical school in year 2003 or later. And it appears a little bit radiculous since many even ask you've done one year residency training in the US.

How do you feel about all these?

Medicina de familia
3 year program with some posible fellowship opportunities very little but some.
If you like OBGYN is a trampoline you can try and do a GYN fellowship of one year, also most of the patients are ooutpatients urgent care center type of patients.

What I like about this FM is that you are their friend and it happens that you are a Doc so when they have a medical problem they come to you.
I love patient physician relationship.

PS for some reason almost all the people that knows me think I should do FM.

They say a picture is worth 1000 words.
Here I have attached a picture of GOGETA trying to get into residency grin

HI, I am finishing my ERAS app this week. Any ideas on how to get Interfolio LOR's sent to ERAS with that Document Submission Form?

Any thoughts on FM programs in the SF Bay Area?

Hi Carmen, what do you mean your LOR? You need to give the cover letter and DSF to your reference, and let them mail out LOR, cover letter and DSF to ECFMG. After you finalize your LORs, they will be sent to ERAS by ECFMG.

Hi Just wondered whether it is a waste of $25 to apply
to programs like mayo clinic FP, upenn FP.
They would be considered like ivy league schools.
But they do have imgs in their program.
