On March 21, medical students across the U.S. eagerly awaited the results of Match Day, learning which residency programs they would be attending.

This year, 10 distinguished students were selected to join the Department of Family & Preventive Medicine’s (DFPM) esteemed Family Medicine Residency Program as the Class of 2028.
