The Lakeside Family Medicine Residency program offers a comprehensive and enriching three-year, ACGME-accredited experience for aspiring family physicians. Each year, we welcome five highly motivated allopathic or osteopathic physicians to join our unopposed program. Located at Lakeside Medical Center, our co-located outpatient family medicine office serves as the central hub for your inpatient and outpatient training.
Our residency distinguishes itself through robust clinical training within a rural, safety-net hospital and a high-volume outpatient setting. This unique environment ensures you gain broad experience and confidence in family medicine. Furthermore, our strategic partnerships with institutions like Nova Southeastern University and the Palm Beach Health Department expand your learning horizons across diverse healthcare landscapes.
Unparalleled Inpatient and Outpatient Training
Lakeside Family Medicine Residency provides exceptional inpatient training through our unopposed, high-volume service. You will manage a wide spectrum of cases, developing strong clinical skills and leadership abilities in a supportive environment.
Complementing this, our outpatient training is equally robust.

This integrated model allows you to understand and address the diverse needs of families within a single setting.
