As part of your interview experience, you will have both informal and formal opportunities to meet with residents, fellows, and faculty members, as well as staff from all three clinic sites.  Your interview day will consist of two equally important half-hour interviews - one with a resident and one with a faculty member.  Along with your interviews, you will take a tour of the hospital facilities, watch a slide show highlighting SFM and Seattle put together by the first year residents, speak with the Program Director and Fellowship Directors, have lunch with the residents and faculty, and have plenty of time to get all of your questions answered.  Van tours of the 45th St. Clinic and Downtown Family Medicine Clinic are also part of the day.

After you schedule your interview you will be sent an interview packet which will include the day's schedule, driving and parking directions, an invitation to the dessert social at one of the resident's homes the night before, and information about all three clinic sites, as well as our fellowship opportunities.  You will also receive information on local accommodations, but you are also more than welcome to stay with a resident or faculty member.  If interested, please contact the residency administration office at (206) 386-6054 to get connected with a host.
