A word from the future of family medicine!

Cameron Kukla and Hephzibah Udo, students from William Carey University College of Osteopathic Medicine, share their favorite moments from our 2026 Spring Fling. From meaningful connections with fellow students and physicians to being finalist in the Annual Poster Contest, Spring Fling was all about learning, networking, and celebrating the journey into family medicine.

See you next year!

We had a great weekend at the 2026 MAFP Spring Conference & Spring Fling!

From engaging CME sessions to meaningful panel discussions for our residents and students, every moment was packed with learning and connection. Our roundtables created space for future physicians to sit alongside experienced family physicians—sharing insights, asking questions, and building the kind of relationships that shape careers.

We also celebrated excellence at our 2nd Annual Research Poster Contest!
The future of Mississippi primary care is bright, and we’re proud to be part of the journey.
