Montefiore’s Family Medicine residency training program was developed in 1973 with an aim toward training ambulatory care practitioners who excelled not only in providing evidence based medical care, but who were equally well versed in addressing the often ignored aspects of health encompassed by the behavioral and social 
sciences. From its inception, the program dedicated itself to the application of a biopsychosocial model of health care in an effort to better understand the effect of individuals, families, communities, culture and economics on overall well-being. Founders believed that this type of comprehensive medicine was best practiced as part of a team focused on providing community oriented primary care in underserved neighborhoods. With these ideals in mind, the program at 
Montefiore has continued to evolve and adapt, both to the changing needs of the communities that it serves and to the residents and faculty who work within it.
