The Department of Family Medicine was founded in 1985 and has significantly expanded under the leadership of Dr. Douglas Reich, who became Chairman in 2006. Dr. Reich has implemented a wide range of services to enhance the department, as well as reinforce its strong Residency Program.
Innovative initiatives, such as the Community Health Worker (CHW) Program, as well as a major outreach effort at the Claremont Village Apartment Complex were implemented. In looking to the future, the Department of Family Medicine continues to move forward as a leader in the field, with an outstanding reputation for the medical and support services it provides.
