Family Medicine Residency Program

Knowing of Williamsport’s Little League World Series, we decided to interview here because the town was surrounded by the most green space of all the places we were considering. From our doorstep, we bike into the hills and local trails. We enjoy the cultural options - the symphony, theater, shopping, great restaurants. With little sprawl of other cities, and affordable real estate, residents who wish to buy a house in Williamsport have no trouble doing so.

Welcome from Our Allopathic Program Director

Welcome to The Williamsport Hospital & Medical Center's Family Medicine Residency Program. Established in 1972, our Program is one of the oldest such programs in the country and today, it has grown to become one of the premier Family Medicine residency programs in the eastern United States. Our reputation for fostering a learning environment that both stimulates and nurtures resident physicians attracts medical school graduates from across the country. Our graduates are highly sought after by area and regional hospitals and have received an impressive number of achievement awards and teaching positions in other residency programs and medical schools throughout the country.

Welcome from Our Osteopathic Program Director

Welcome to our dually-accredited Family Medicine Residency Program at The Williamsport Hospital and Medical Center. Providing a comprehensive osteopathic family medicine education is a premier goal that we take quite seriously. Our program offers the combined benefits of a strong, well-established medical education with that of a fully-integrated osteopathic curriculum. Osteopathic resident graduates pursuing a career in academic medicine have a competitive advantage by being eligible to take both the allopathic and osteopathic boards. Take some time to explore all that we have to offer.
