Emory University Department of Medicine

Welcome to the Division of General Medicine

The Division of General Medicine provides the bulk of clinical patient-care services in adult medicine at Grady Memorial Hospital. The Division's mission encompasses patient-care, teaching and research. Patient care is first priority since the other components of the mission depend on excellence in patient care. The Division's faculty sees patients directly and provides hands-on supervision for every one of our patients seen by the Emory housestaff. We provide services on Emory's Inpatient Units. (The Division's attending physicians supervise nine of the twelve patient-care teams on Emory's Inpatient Service in Internal Medicine), General Medical Clinic, and Urgent Care Center. There are currently forty-one full-time faculty physicians working in the Division of General Medicine at Grady Memorial Hospital. The Division has expanded to more than double its size in the past five years and will continue to expand slowly in future years as additional patient-care responsibilities are added.
