Geriatrics

The sizable population of our country’s older residents continues to grow as baby boomers hit senior citizen status. Our one-year Geriatric fellowship emphasizes quality of care and deep understanding of Socioeconomic Determinants of Health to develop competent, compassionate geriatricians. We follow the Age-Friendly Health Systems 4Ms Framework for patient care — measuring What Matters, Medication, Mentation and Mobility for our senior population.

We offer a new, innovative residency and fellowship pathway that aims to fill a growing need for doctors who specialize in treating the unique health challenges that come with age. The Internal Medicine-Geriatrics Integrated Residency and Fellowship Pathway, commonly known as the Combined Med-Geri Pathway, provides an alternative route for training geriatricians by integrating the clinical experiences and competencies required of a geriatrics fellowship across the internal medicine residency. The Wright Center is one of 14 training sites across the country approved by the Accreditation Council on Graduate Medical Education to offer this unique pathway. To request more information, email internalmedicine-geriatrics@TheWrightCenter.org. View faculty here.
