Lubbock Home to One of the Best Medical Schools in Primary Care in the Nation

FMAT class of 2023

Texas Tech University Health Sciences (TTUHSC) Center School of Medicine received top rankings from the American Academy of Family Physicians and U.S. News & World Reports. The ratings confirm and validate the School of Medicine’s commitment to address the shortage of primary care physicians in the U.S. with the Family Medicine Accelerated Track (FMAT) program approved by the nationally recognized accrediting authority for medical education in 2010.

The FMAT program has allowed TTUHSC primary care students to complete their degree in three years at half of the cost of the standard four-year program. This year marks 10 years since the first FMAT class graduated.
