Interview with Dr. John Kihm, Concierge Physician, ACPP Fellowships in Clinical Excellence in Concierge Medicine Program Coordinator

MAY 2018 - The American College of Private Physicians (ACPP) is a professional organization dedicated to the support and advancement of concierge and direct practice physicians. Today, we talk to Dr. John Kihm, a Concierge Medicine Physician from Durham, NC and ACPP Board Medicine about the 1-2 year curriculum and Fellowship in Clinical Excellence in Concierge Medicine.

The ACPP offers 1- and 2-year fellowships in Clinical Excellence in Concierge Medicine. According to interviews with graduating residents in Internal Medicine and Family Medicine, today’s residencies do not train residents for the real-world workforce. Upon completion of residency training, they are ill-prepared to practice quality, outpatient-based medicine and are not trained to face the business aspects of medical practice. This fellowship will prepare the Clinical Excellence Fellow to practice at the Concierge level successfully in today’s world.

John T. Kihm, MD, FACP, has been a successful primary care internal medicine physician for more than 30 years, is here to take care of you. He is also the American College of Private Physicians (ACPP.md) Fellowships in Clinical Excellence in Concierge Medicine Program Coordinator He uses his listening and communication skills, and extensive experience and knowledge to form a correct diagnosis and treatment. He spends the time that it takes to help his patients. His interests are varied but unified with the intent to help others.

The ACPP Fellowships in Clinical Excellence seeks to prepare the fellow to practice “in the real world,” at the level of Concierge Medicine. Fellowships will benefit by learning in 1 or 2 years what normally takes a decade or more to learn through medical practice experience. ACPP members will benefit by having a highly trained applicant pool from which to draw future partner candidates.

Ultimately, patients will benefit by having superb physicians. Training sites are offered by practicing Concierge Medicine members of the ACPP. Please contact the ACPP for additional information.
