Lawrence General, in partnership with Greater Lawrence Family Health Center, recently welcomed 12 new interns to our family medicine residency program — officially the Class of 2029!

Led by Residency Program Director Nicholas Weida, MD, these student doctors will rotate through a variety of specialties across our hospital system as they build their clinical skills over the next four years.

Now celebrating more than 30 years of excellence, the Greater Lawrence Family Medicine Residency was the first accredited community health center-sponsored family medicine residency in the country. It continues to earn national recognition for both its strong academic training and the rich cultural experiences it offers. Lawrence General remains the program’s primary teaching hospital, hosting residents for their clinical rotations.

Our newest interns come from across the country and chose Lawrence General for reasons including our community-focused mission and strong sense of belonging. As one student put it: “The diverse patient population brought me here.”
