Geriatric Medicine Fellowship

Geriatric Medicine Fellowship

At St. Luke’s University Health Network our 1-year fellowship is a hands-on learning experience across multitudes of settings for our geriatric population.

With the shortage of physicians trained in geriatrics and the rapid growth of our aging population, it is our program’s goal to dedicate our professional lives and passion to care for older adults and to educate geriatric fellows to achieve expertise in:

  • Providing clinical care for seniors living in the community and in skilled nursing facilities
  • Managing and preventing geriatric syndromes
  • Developing practice models and better care for older adults
  • Evaluating cognitive deficits while preparing complex treatment plans
