Michigan Family Medicine Conference & Expo Scholarship Winners

Through generous donations from family physicians and other family medicine supporters, Family Medicine Foundation of Michigan’s Event Scholarship Fund provides scholarships for medical student and resident members to attend events such as the Michigan Family Medicine Conference & Expo.

Congratulations to the following members awarded scholarships for attending the 2023 Michigan Family Medicine Conference & Expo, Aug. 12-15, and a big thank you to the donors.
