Thank you for your interest in Mizzou Family Medicine! We want your interview experience to feel personal, welcoming, and genuine. Throughout the day, we’ll give you the opportunity to get to know our residents, faculty, and residency staff and learn what makes our program such a special place to train. I’m excited to share more about our residency and introduce you to the people who make our program so strong!

Your interview day will include an overview of our program, followed by opportunities throughout the day to connect with members of our residency community, ask questions, and learn more about what life is like at Mizzou Family Medicine. You will also have opportunities to step away between conversations and learn more about our program, our clinical experiences, and the Columbia community.

We’re looking forward to getting to know you and sharing what makes Mizzou Family Medicine such a great place to call home!

Sincerely,
Kristen L. Deane. MD
Professor and Residency Director
