Members
of the Section of General Internal Medicine act as primary attendings on the
inpatient general medical services at the University of Illinois Medical Center
and Jesse
Brown
VA Medical
Center.
They also act as on-site teaching attendings for the General Medicine Clinic,
which has about 14,000 visits per year.
The section faculty teach small groups during the Essentials of Clinical
Medicine (ECM) course (M1 and M2). Faculty accept Longitudinal Primary Care
students and serve as advisors to students interested
in a career in Internal Medicine.
The Section provides a primary care perspective that seeks to deliver continuous,
comprehensive care with a patient-centered focus. The psychosocial aspects
of health care are integrated with the biological component to provide care
that treats the whole patient in his or her life context, including the ethical
aspects of medical care.
