Overview

In addition to caring for hospitalized patients, our hospitalists perform inpatient medicine consultation and preoperative medical consults for medically complex patients. We have a strong affiliation with the University of Washington (UW) School of Medicine and enjoy teaching medical students and residents. Finally, we are actively engaged in hospital quality and process improvement.
