AdventHealth Florida East Orlando Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a 24-resident (8-8-8) ACGME-accredited osteopathic-recognition family medicine program at AdventHealth East Orlando, built explicitly around osteopathic identity — OMM/OMT is integrated longitudinally into continuity clinic, dedicated inpatient/ambulatory OMM blocks appear each PGY year, and a named NMM track exists for residents pursuing ONMM3 fellowship. Residents train at a busy 296-bed core hospital with an 80-bed ED (system's busiest), manage their own inpatient family medicine service, and staff a dedicated Community Medicine Clinic serving underserved local populations plus a resident-run pediatric continuity practice. Research is institutionally supported through a centralized CARE infrastructure (biostatisticians, academic mentors, regulatory support) with required scholarly output, QI projects, and a system-wide GME Research Day, positioned as developing both clinical and academic skill rather than being an identity-defining pursuit. The program layers a faith-based service mission (mission trips, sports medicine coverage, community clinic work) onto a broad-scope, procedurally-equipped, whole-person-care training model, valuing residents committed to osteopathic philosophy and eventual practice in Central Florida.
