Hopkins GIM offers comprehensive inpatient and outpatient internal medicine services. Division faculty focus on delivering excellent primary and hospital-based care, and serve as exemplary clinical role models for students and housestaff. Clinical faculty provide up-to-date evidence-based, patient-focused care and are continuously improving the quality of their practices. Division clinicians care for diverse patient populations from Baltimore City and surrounding communities.
Hopkins GIM offers longitudinal care in two settings: downtown at the Johns Hopkins Outpatient Center and just outside the Beltway at Greenspring Station. Several new physicians will be opening practices at Greenspring over the next few months and we’ll begin to accept new patient appointments in mid-February. Also based downtown is the Executive Health Program, which provides comprehensive annual health assessments for people with busy schedules.
The internists of Hopkins GIM fill three key roles at Johns Hopkins Hospital. First, many are associated with housestaff firms with responsibilities to teach residents and students and periodically serve as attending physician on the inpatient services. Second, GIM faculty and fellows staff the Inpatient Medical Consultation Service, on call to help surgery, psychiatry, opthalmology, and other hospital departments manage medical problems on non-medical services. Third, the Hospitalist Program provides state-of-the-art, comprehensive, evidence-based clinical care to hospitalized patients.
The faculty and fellows of Hopkins GIM also work beyond the Division, in collaboration with colleagues from across the Department of Medicine and around the campus. At First Step/911 Broadway, general internists help treat patients who suffer complications from substance abuse. In the Moore Clinic, they work alongside colleagues in the Infectious Disease Division in multi-disciplinary teams to treat patients with HIV/AIDS. And in the University Health Service, they provide longitudinal and acute care to Hopkins students, residents, trainees, and their dependents. (Click for more details on these affiliated practices).
