 In His Image Family Medicine Residency Program is a Christian community-based family medicine training program accredited by the ACGME. Our outpatient clinic is in south Tulsa, and the majority of our inpatient rotations are done at Hillcrest Medical Center, a major tertiary referral center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We also have inpatient and outpatient educational experiences at Claremore Comprehensive Indian Health Facility in Claremore, Oklahoma. We have a very active family medicine inpatient service, to which we admit patients from our clinic and the emergency room. This service is run by the family medicine residents, under the supervision of the family medicine attending physicians. Patient types include obstetrical patients, antepartum and postpartum complications, newborns, and children ranging in age from newborns to teenagers. We also care for many different adult medical problems, including ICU patients, and have a significant number of geriatric patients. We do medical consultations on surgical patients, both on a preoperative and postoperative basis.
 Our model family medicine resident clinic experience is excellent. Our residents are in clinic on a regular basis and are very busy. The patient mix is a variety of private pay, HMO, Medicaid and Medicare patients. Our clinic is fully staffed with excellent personnel, including lab technicians, x-ray technicians, and qualified nurses. We have full x-ray and laboratory capabilities, in addition to ultrasound, exercise stress testing, and minor surgery.
The preceptorship is designed around an active outpatient clinic experience to help medical students develop skills in the evaluation and treatment of ambulatory medical problems, and to learn about the operation of a busy family medicine clinic. We also include an inpatient experience to gain exposure to some of the peculiarities and unique methods of running an inpatient service from a Christian family medicine perspective.
In His Image Family Medicine Residency Program welcomes U.S. medical students to apply for a two or four week rotation during their third (March-May) or fourth (July-January) years of medical school.

Then upon notification of preliminary acceptance a completed student application form (see last page) must be mailed or faxed with endorsement of the Dean or other official at the student's medical school stating that the school provides malpractice insurance. This must be accompanied by an official medical school transcript, along with a letter of recommendation from the Dean or other official.
