At the end of July, NCAFP staff and members made the most of the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) FUTURE Conference! The medical student and resident members gained new experience with Family Medicine while also enjoying the chance to have fun with their fellow members from around the state. “It was a great weekend for our students and for the NC Family Medicine residencies,” says NCAFP Exec. VP and CEO Greg Griggs, who attended FUTURE. “Seeing it all happen makes me excited for the next generation of family physicians!”
FUTURE brought other great news also: Dr. Claire Namboodri, Asia-La'Rae Walker, and Andrea Augustine all achieved leadership roles in national Family Medicine! Dr. Namboodri became Resident Delegate-Elect to the AAFP Congress of Delegates, Walker became the Medical Student Trustee on the Society for Teachers of Family Medicine Board, and Augustine received a second year on the AAFP Foundation Board. We were glad to support them during FUTURE, and we look forward to their leadership in the years ahead!
