Florida Medical Clinic is a multi-specialty physician group with locations throughout the Tampa Bay area. Our physician-owned clinic is currently growing with over 400 providers and more than 50 locations. Florida Medical Clinic’s one-year postgraduate Administrative Residency Program was established in 2012 and is designed to provide recent MHA/MBA graduates practical and operational experience in the outpatient setting.
The unique aspect about our residency program is that you are training for a permanent Associate Director position within Florida Medical Clinic during your time as a resident.
The Administrative Residency is a project-based program which exposes the resident to all facets of the organization. The resident will work closely with the senior leadership team throughout rotations and projects related to process improvement, financial, and operational initiatives of Florida Medical Clinic. Along with project work, the resident will attend executive and board meetings. The resident is also encouraged to supplement their experience with attending other committee meetings throughout Florida Medical Clinic and shadowing clinic staff.
We provide our resident with coaching and mentoring that enhance leadership and management skills. Previous residents and directors working within Florida Medical Clinic serve as mentors to guide the resident through their learning experience. Residents develop close relationships with their mentors as well as the executive leadership team during project assignments and rotations.
Objectives
The objectives of the residency include:
- Gaining mentor/mentee relationships with the senior leadership team
- Postgraduate hands-on management experience and professional growth
