Family MedicineResidency Program
West Kendall Baptist HospitalFamily Medicine CenterA new state-of-the-art facility adjacent to West Kendall Baptist Hospital, the Family Medicine Center was designed to promote the family medicine residency program’s goal of providing leading practices in education and compassionate care in a high-tech and personal environment.
The Family Medicine Center is the site of the resident and faculty continuity practice. It houses spacious, accessible exam rooms equipped with bedside computers for electronic charting, as well as resident office space and a meeting room wired for multimedia presentations and teleconferencing. Residents will work with the full spectrum of pediatric to adult patients and provide care for acute and chronic conditions.
Florida International University Family Medicine Subinternships
The FIU Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine offers fourth-year medical students inpatient and outpatient subinternships in family medicine at West Kendall Baptist Hospital. Participants work under the supervision of faculty and residents in the Family Medicine Residency Program. Subinternships are four weeks in length.
At the West Kendall Baptist Hospital — Florida International University Family Medicine Residency Program, we build on the programs of excellence at Baptist Health South Florida and the FIU Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine.
With four residents per year, the residency program offers an individualized approach — preparing clinically skilled physicians to work effectively as part of larger healthcare systems. Residents receive training in quality assessment and improvement, research and public policy, while developing leadership and team-building skills through collaboration on interprofessional teams and community engagement. We provide a high-tech and personalized patient- and family-centered environment coupled with unsurpassed excellence in quality of care measures and patient satisfaction scores. As the first residency program at West Kendall Baptist Hospital, we are uniquely positioned to provide a rich and personalized residency learning experience.
Our vision is to offer the preeminent family medicine residency program in South Florida, attracting, training and retaining highly skilled physicians to serve the community.

The specialty of family medicine is relationship-centered, embraces continuity and comprehensiveness, and places an emphasis on the patient’s perspective within the context of family and community.

Maybe it’s Miami’s beautiful beaches, tropical sunshine or colorful culture, but those of us who work at West Kendall Baptist Hospital wouldn’t live anywhere else. Miami-Dade is one of the most culturally diverse counties in America (over half of our inhabitants are foreign-born); once people move here, they love to call it home. As a suburb of Miami, West Kendall manages to be cosmopolitan and casual at the same time, offering a relaxed lifestyle near Miami’s dynamic downtown.
