Franz Monroy, MD and Erin Thomas, PA-C
Erin joined Intermountain Cottonwood Family Medicine in October 2020, and Gayle joined House Calls in the Ogden area in July 2021. Both participated in a 12-month program with didactic curriculum and once-a-month weekly rotations through different specialties to strengthen professional development.
The Primary Care program was developed to enhance the education for newly graduated APPs as they start their professional journey in primary care. There are currently ten active residents. The program hopes to add up to 10 residents in the coming months and further develop the program with an APP Fellowship program in Primary Care with the coming year.
Erin says, “I enjoyed participating in the APP residency. It was great to get to know other providers and specialists within the Intermountain system. In addition to expanding my clinical knowledge, I now have resources to contact for questions and consults.”
“We’re excited for Erin to continue to pursue her healthcare journey with us,” says Franz Monroy, MD, her collaborating physician. “As we continue to further develop this program, we hope to have an APP fellowship program in Primary Care in the next year.” Please help us congratulate Erin in completing this endeavor.
