History and Mission
Since 1974, the mission of the Swedish
Family Medicine Residency Program Cherry Hill has been to improve the
well being and health of the medically and socially underserved by
training doctors to provide comprehensive, high quality, and continuous
health care to diverse populations. We have three training sites in our
residency program. The original clinic site at Cherry Hill, takes 6
residents per year and serves a multi-ethnic typically inner city
population using interpreters in 17 different languages, has implemented
an open access model of scheduling, uses a highly advanced electronic
medical record including a secure patient portal and has provided group
visits as well as a high risk obstetrics clinic for several years. Add

We place particular emphasis on inpatient care, obstetrics, behavioral science, and cultural sensitivity in a multidisciplinary setting.
