PRESS RELEASE

Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare and Florida State University's College of Medicine are working well together on two residency programs, both aimed at keeping new doctors practicing in this area. FSU's medical school was founded a decade ago on the premise that it would focus on rural and medically underserved areas such as those in North Florida. It is not an easy mission to fulfill, yet residency programs are known to be a big factor in where a physician decides to settle.

Ahead of Natasha Spencer is a residency at the University of Alabama-Birmingham. She will spend 
the next four years as an ob/gyn, studying and learning, preparing for the day she can take her 
talents to underserved communities. Behind Spencer is a rough childhood in a Tampa community where high school students were as 
likely to drop out as they were to graduate. Luckily, Spencer, a 26-year-old who graduated from FSU's College of Medicine three weeks ago, has an 
extremely supportive family and a network of influential friends who are as impressed with her as 
she is with them. And of course, having Super Bowl XXXVII champion Derrick Brooks in your corner doesn't hurt.

PRESS RELEASE

The ink is drying on a deal for a long-awaited program that aims to bring more doctors to Southwest Florida. Lee Memorial Health System has contracted with the Florida State University College of Medicine for a physician residency program for doctors-in-training. Compared to other states, Florida has one of the highest physician shortages because of a limited number of training programs for newly graduated doctors, experts say. Florida has 243 physicians for every 100,000 residents, compared with 267 doctors for every 100,000 nationally, according to the Florida Medical Association.
