Riverside Family Medicine is proud to hold ACGME Osteopathic Recognition, with a strong emphasis on the integration of osteopathic principles and practices. This aspect of our curriculum is particularly robust for residents with a passion for osteopathic medicine. Our faculty is fully committed to supporting this training through formal osteopathic didactics and hands-on precepting in both hospital and clinical settings, ensuring that residents receive a well-rounded and in-depth osteopathic education.
