The Texas Tech University Family Practice Residency at the Permian Basin is a community-based, university-administered program located in the heart of the Permian Basin. This program has been in operation since 1984 and has produced 74 graduates.
Our mission is to provide a vigorous training program that will enable its graduates to serve as the keystone and main providers of health care in rural, urban and particularly underserved areas.
Six positions are offered for each year of training in our fully accredited three-year program, which is dedicated to producing broadly trained graduates capable of practicing in any geographical setting.
Faculty consists of seven MD/DO's and a behavioral scientist. A geriatrician is included among the faculty. Residents rotate through the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Internal Medicine, Surgery and Pediatics over the course of their training. In addition, residents rotate with community physicians representing a range of specialties such as surgery, pulmonology, radiology, ophthalmology, and neurology.
