NHSC Loan Repayment Opportunities

Tampa Family Health Centers operates National Health Service Corps-approved locations. Eligible physicians assigned to a qualifying location may apply for federal student loan repayment through the NHSC.

Qualifying Family Medicine physicians may be eligible to receive up to $80,000 in student loan repayment assistance, depending on current NHSC program guidelines, site eligibility, service commitment, and available funding.

Why Consider Residency Faculty?

Residency faculty physicians have the opportunity to combine the best parts of clinical medicine and physician development.

In addition to maintaining your own Family Medicine practice, you will have the opportunity to:

• Help shape the next generation of Family Medicine physicians
• Build teaching and leadership experience
• Develop professionally within graduate medical education
• Work closely with residency leadership and physician faculty
• Mentor residents as they transition from training into independent practice
• Remain actively engaged in direct patient care
• Contribute to the continued growth of TFHC’s Family Medicine Residency Program

For physicians who are interested in academic medicine but do not want to step away from community-based clinical practice, this position offers the opportunity to do both.
