Faculty diversity

Although Palliative Medicine is administratively housed in Internal Medicine, there are multiple medical specialties represented on our faculty: Internal Medicine, Geriatrics, Family Medicine, Pediatrics, Psychiatry, Emergency Medicine, Infectious Disease and Obstetric/Gynecology. In addition we are able to utilize the expertise of the palliative pharmacist, as well as staff with additional ethics training. Different points of view from team members promote creative thinking and problem solving as they encourage one another to share their different points of view.
