Clinic Highlights

We dedicate the 1st week of clinic to pair new interns with a senior who will walk them through the clinic structure and logistics, different patient encounters, notes, EPIC navigation, billing and coding.
We offer leadership opportunities by dedicating a resident lead to each clinic block who is responsible for overseeing resident clinic tasks and workflow in addition to gathering feedback.
Ambulatory patient care extends to our inpatient service, which provides both patients and residents with significant continuity.
Our clinic has a dedicated ambulatory staff consisting of nurses, MA’s and front desk staff which are an integral part of the resident ambulatory experience.
We have multidisciplinary resources available to our patients within the clinic including: multispecialty clinics (cardiology, endocrinology, rheumatology, etc.), COVID recovery clinic, Spanish language clinic, pharmacists, diabetic educator, dietitian, care management, social work, nurse triage, lab, imaging, anticoagulation clinic, and food pantry.
Senior residents hold the clinic pager (with attending backup) once per clinic block to experience and learn how to respond to urgent outpatient calls.
