The Wesley program started in 1967 under the direction of Gayle Stephens, M.D. It was one of the first four family medicine residency programs in the country.

Dr. Stephens, who died in 2014, was president of the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine, received the American Academy of Family Physicians Thomas W. Johnson Award for Career Contributions to Family Medicine and was a member of the National Academy of Sciences Institutes of Medicine. He is considered the philosophic father of family medicine and his book “The Intellectual Basis of Family Practice” described the core principles of family medicine as a medical specialty.
