Lafayette's family practice residency program: practice patterns of graduates. 1996

G N Jones, and A C Rees

Dept of Family Medicine, LSU Medical Center School of Medicine-New Orleans, USA.

The Lafayette Family Practice Residency Program graduated 25 physicians prior to 1995. This project was undertaken to support our assumption that graduates establish their practices in communities near their residency programs. Further we surveyed the graduates to determine graduate satisfaction and practice characteristics. The vast majority (88%) of these physicians were practicing in Louisiana at the time of this survey. Over half the graduates were practicing in Acadiana. The results suggest that these physicians are indeed satisfied in their careers as family physicians.
