- Medical Weight LossIf weight loss is part of your health goal, we will include it in your plan. But the program is for everyone. We work with people who have diabetes, high blood pressure, depression or anyone that just wants to feel better and live their best life.
- Pediatric CareFamily medicine physicians interested in resident medical education have the unique opportunity to precept family medicine residents from the University of New Mexico. The South Valley clinic houses 12 residents at their site for the resident continuity clinic experience and preceptors are tasked with training and inspiring the next generation of family medicine physicians to enter future careers in underserved areas. Preceptors are expected to be evidence-based and experienced with pediatric care, obstetric care, substance use disorder care, routine outpatient procedures, gender affirming care and chronic disease care. The residency also offers the opportunity to use Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) while precepting, which is a unique feature of the South Valley precepting experience. There are also opportunities to present at resident schools, grand rounds at the University of New Mexico and publish scholarly articles in conjunction with the residency program. Applicants interested in resident faculty teaching and resident mentoring will find that First Choice is a great place to cultivate this skill.
