Wellmont Health Systems-Lonesome Pine Hospital Family Medicine Residency
The Lonesome Pine Hospital Family Medicine Residency Program is located in Big Stone Gap – a rural community in Beautiful Southwest Virginia, within a very short distance of Tennessee. This area is part of what is known here as The Tri-Cities, a region comprising the cities of Kingsport, Johnson City, Bristol and the surrounding smaller towns and communities in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia.
As a resident, you will work in a rural setting for primary care training, while also gaining invaluable experience from larger hospitals. Our residents have opportunities to do rotations a short distance away at Bristol Regional Medical Center and Holston Valley Medical Center. Both centers provide high quality medical care and both have continued to be recognized among the nations’ best hospitals.
