The Global Health Fellowship Program at Lee Health is sponsored by The Florida State University (FSU) College of Medicine.

We are a one-year Global Health fellowship for recent graduates with US board certification in either Family Medicine or Internal medicine. Our fellows spend up to 50% of their time overseas at mission hospitals, clinics and international Family Medicine residencies in alternating 2-3 month cycles. Time spent domestically is in Fort Myers, Florida where fellows work as junior faculty for the FSU Family Medicine Residency Program at Lee Health with much flexibility of schedule and time protected for learning.

This role does require active BLS certification from the American Heart Association, Active Florida License (or ability to obtain one prior to start date), as well as an Unrestricted DEA in Florida.

Please be advised that under the directive of House Bill 531 (2025), this position does require an AHCA Background verification. More information on this requirement can be obtained at
