At Franklin Family Medicine Residency, we do more than train doctors. We shape leaders in community health. Here, your residency is more than rotations and exams. It is about showing up for patients in rural towns, for families without consistent care, and for communities that have been historically underserved.
Our residents are changemakers. They choose Franklin because they are ready to serve where it matters most: right here in Southwest Alabama.
Compassion: We treat every patient with dignity, empathy, and respect.
Excellence: We hold ourselves to the highest clinical, academic, and ethical standards.
Community: We are deeply connected to the people we serve and the partners who help us do it.
Equity: We confront disparities and build systems that promote fairness and access for all.

A curriculum designed for real-world service. With emphases in Family Medicine and Women’s Health, Healthcare for the Homeless, and Population Health, our training prepares you to lead in underserved care.
