Division of Internal Medicine
Our mission is to provide a broad spectrum of research-driven internal medicine care for patients with cancer, including aspects of prevention, treatment and survivorship. Our vision is to continually expand our lead as a research-driven internal medicine division in a comprehensive cancer care center.
The Division of Internal Medicine comprises eight departments:
- Cardiology
- Dermatology
- Endocrine Neoplasia and Hormonal Disorders
- Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition
- General Internal Medicine, Ambulatory Treatment and Emergency Care
- Infectious Diseases, Infection Control and Employee Health
- Pulmonary Medicine
- Symptom Research
In addition to providing clinical excellence in their division practices, faculty members have developed broad-based research programs in their respective subspecialty areas.
The Life After Cancer Care Program Thanks to new, improved therapies, an increasing number of people are surviving cancer and enjoying a full life after treatment. However, we know that staying healthy can be a challenge for cancer survivors because intensive treatments create unique and long-lasting health needs. The division is committed to addressing these issues to make life after cancer as healthy and productive as possible through our Life After Cancer Care medical program. The Life After Cancer Care program provides comprehensive assessment of cancer and cancer treatment-related medical needs of cancer survivors, and recommendations for further evaluation and long-term follow-up.
