CLINIC OVERVIEW
The Family Medicine Residency Clinic (FMRC) would like to welcome you and thank you for choosing our center for health services. We provide health care services to Soldiers, Retirees, and their family members.
The clinic is on the first floor of Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center at Fort Hood.
When you enrolled in TRICARE Prime, you were given a Primary Care Manager (PCM) by name. The Patient Appointment Service (288-8888) will always attempt to give you an appointment with your PCM. When your PCM is unavailable, your appointments will generally be with a member of your PCM's team.
Clinicians
The FMRC is proud to offer full-scope primary care – providing newborn, infant, pediatric, adolescent, women’s health, adult, obstetric, and geriatric care to 7,000 patients. Our patients range from the newest babies born at CRDAMC to World War II veterans and their spouses. One of the many benefits of the FMRC is the practice of family medicine in which your primary care provider can care for you and your whole family. This even extends to pregnancy care – the same physician can care for a woman before, during, and after her pregnancy, including managing her labor and delivery, caring for her and her newborn in the hospital, and as an outpatient after delivery.
In fulfilling our mission to provide patient-centered, evidence-based, and compassionate healthcare to our patients, the clinic also is proud to support the Family Medicine Residency Program's mission to train resident physicians in the specialty of family medicine. CRDAMC provides an outstanding environment to train physicians and other healthcare providers of the future. The clinic staff includes family physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, clinical psychologist, clinical pharmacologist, nurses, and medics. The teaching faculty are all board-certified family physicians, many of whom have advanced training in other areas such as sports medicine, geriatrics, obstetrics, osteopathy, and research. The resident physicians provide care under the supervision of the teaching staff. The clinic also provides learning opportunities for medical students, physical therapy interns, and physician assistant students.
