Program Highlights

Queen’s University Family Medicine is a highly regarded longstanding program (established in 1972). Our two-year program is based on the College of Family Physicians of Canada competency-based “Triple C” Curriculum (Comprehensive learning; Continuity of patient care, curriculum, and supervision; and family medicine-Centred education). The program consists of core family medicine experiences complemented by experiences in other specialties relevant to family medicine.

 

Belleville-Quinte Program Highlights
  • Family medicine-centred two-year integrated, horizontal “Triple C” Curriculum (Comprehensive learning, Continuity of learning, and family medicine-Centred education)
  • An average of two full days in family medicine clinics each week with a primary preceptor, alongside horizontal experiences in other disciplines relevant to family medicine
  • Eight weeks of rural community family medicine (locations could include Picton, Bancroft, and any other Queen’s-approved communities)
  • Four weeks of internal medicine (ICU or ward) taken in one-week hospitalist blocks also in longitudinal fashion with family medicine-friendly preceptors
  • Eight weeks of electives taken as four in PGY1 and four in PGY2
  • Great exposure to hospitalist, house calls, LTC, procedures, palliative care, leadership, and practice management
