You will benefit from being seen by physicians whose focus is completely on the care of hospitalized patients. Because they know every specialist and department in the hospital, they can more easily coordinate inpatient care, follow up on tests, and make treatment adjustments.

Once you leave the hospital, you will return to your regular physician for medical care. If you don’t have a regular physician, we can help you find one. Records from your hospital stay can be sent to this physician.
