Welcome to the Division of General Internal Medicine at the Macon and Joan Brock Virginia Health Sciences at 91Ƭ. Our division is committed to advancing the practice of general internal medicine through exceptional clinical care, innovative education, impactful research, and collaborative leadership.
We are proud to serve a diverse community through a team-based approach that values high reliability, quality improvement, and patient-centered outcomes.
The Division of General Internal Medicine (GIM) is home to a large, diverse group of physicians dedicated to our mission of providing the best care to patients and populations, educating the next generation of physicians and scientists, and improving health and healthcare through clinical research. The division is comprised of highly talented faculty who are engaged in all aspects of academic medicine.
Division faculty also fill several key administrative roles within the Department of Internal Medicine and Macon & Joan Brock Virginia Health Sciences at 91Ƭ and within our local partner, the Sentara Health System. The faculty in the Division are divided into three groups - those who practice exclusively in the inpatient setting (Hospitalists), those who practice solely in outpatient settings (Ambulists), and those who practice traditional internal medicine in inpatient and outpatient settings.
These three groups of physicians work together closely as a team providing excellent care to our patients.
As Division Chief, I am honored to lead a talented and mission-driven team of faculty and staff. With decades of clinical, academic, and administrative experience, I am committed to fostering a culture of excellence, safety, and innovation. Our division is focused on transforming primary care delivery, improving access, and addressing health equity through intentional system redesign, multidisciplinary care, and strategic partnerships.
Through robust faculty development, targeted quality improvement, and patient-centered education, we are positioning General Internal Medicine as a driver of value-based care and academic excellence in our region.
