TFM is committed to providing comprehensive care to communities in need, embracing full spectrum patient care. Our clinic proudly serves a diverse range of communities, with half of our patients identifying as Black, Latinx, Multi-Racial, Asian, Pacific Islander, and American Indian/Alaska Native. Beyond English, common languages spoken in our clinic include Spanish, Cambodian, Vietnamese, and Russian, reflecting the multicultural fabric of our patient base.
Our patient population is composed of individuals with diverse cultural, professional, ethnic, national, religious, gender, sexual (LGBTQIA+), and disability identities. Most of our patients rely on public insurance, highlighting our role in serving underserved and underrepresented populations. We acknowledge that health disparities often stem from systemic oppression and racism, which profoundly impact social determinants of health and contribute to various health concerns. Recognizing these realities, we are dedicated to addressing and mitigating these disparities through informed and compassionate care.
We believe that increasing the intersectional diversity of the physician workforce is a crucial, evidence-based strategy to eliminate health inequity. Our residency program is designed not only to produce family physicians committed to serving underserved communities but also to cultivate a workforce that reflects the diversity of our patients. We strongly encourage individuals from all intersectional backgrounds to apply to our exceptional residency program, as we strive to create a healthcare environment where all feel represented and respected.
