The MUSC Family Medicine Residency Program offers its deepest condolences to the family and friends of Dr. John Cheng, who gave his life on Sunday, May 15, 2022, as he tried to subdue an armed gunman in a Taiwanese church in Laguna Woods, California. Dr. Cheng was a dedicated and beloved family and sports medicine physician at South Coast Family Medicine and Urgent Care. His brave actions will always be remembered, as the family medicine community mourns his loss.

2021 Match Highlights!

4,493 medical students and graduates matched to family medicine residency programs. Here's the breakdown:

- 1,623 were U.S. allopathic medical school (MD) seniors
-1,443 were osteopathic medical school (DO) seniors
- 781 were U.S. international graduates (IMGs)
- 444 were foreign IMGs
- 125 were previous graduates of U.S. MD-granting schools
- 77 were previous graduates of DO-granting schools
Family medicine offered 4,844 positions, 159 more than 2019, and 13.8% of positions offered in all specialties.
- Most notably in 2021, the growth of family medicine continued even after the final shift to a Single Accreditation System and consolidation to the N**P Match in 2020 which had been responsible for a large portion of the significant growth from 2017 to 2020.
- The number of U.S. MD seniors matching increased after two years of slight year-over-year declines. It remains significantly below–717 positions–the historical peak of 2,340 in 1997. Only 8.8% of matched U.S. MD seniors matched into family medicine.
- The number of DO seniors matching to family medicine reached a record high; however, the percentage of DO students matching to family medicine (22.8%) has declined slightly in recent years.
- One-quarter (24.8%) of U.S. IMGs and 10.2% of foreign IMGs who matched to any specialty matched to family medicine.
- A total of 3,268 U.S. MD and DO seniors and graduates matched in family medicine. This represents 12.6% of all U.S. students or graduates matched in all specialties, half of the goal of at least 25% by 2030.
