About the Program
The McAllen Family Medicine Residency Program was established in 1977 to help train and educate excellent Family Medicine physicians for South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley under the sponsorship of the University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio (UTHSCSA). Since the development of the Family Medicine Residency Program over 200 physicians have been trained.
In April 2015, the McAllen Family Medicine Residency Program became part of a new sponsoring institution, The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV). The program’s mission has not changed, and we look forward to training excellent Family Medicine Physicians who will remain in Texas to practice medicine, particularly in rural underserved areas of the state.
The UTRGV Family Medicine-MMC Residency Program is a three-year educational experience that offers 6 positions through the resident match each year. Residents are engaged in a curriculum that allows each resident to rotate through a number of specialty areas.
This year we will sunset the remaining residents and program will close at the end of June 2025.
