The Rhode Island
Academy of Family Physicians (RIAFP) is an over 185-member Rhode Island
affiliate of the American
Academy of Family Physicians,
the largest primary care physician organization in the United States.
Our organization
supports ongoing physician education, works with residents in primary
care, and advocates public policies to improve the health care system.
We work with the Rhode
Island Medical Society and the Rhode
Island Department of Health, to achieve those aims.
Our members staff
private practices and community health centers, deliver babies, make
home visits, and treat patients at every hospital in Rhode Island.
Our doctors work with schools and day care centers and nursing homes,
and care for entire families from every community in the state.
