General Internal Medicine Fellowship

Division of General Medicine
Department of Medicine, Columbia University

We offer a two-year post-doctoral Fellowship program in General Internal Medicine. We believe that fostering the development of the future generation of leaders in General Internal Medicine is of the greatest importance to the national agenda to achieve excellence in primary care and generalist medicine and to the Columbia University Medical Center 's goal of providing leadership to this enterprise. Accordingly, the goal of our fellowship program is to train future leaders in academic primary care. Building on existing degree programs at Columbia , our fellowship offers a choice of emphasis in the following areas: epidemiology, health services research, geriatrics, nutrition, or health education.

Our fellowship program is funded by the Health Resources Services Agency jointly with the Division of General Pediatrics and the Center for Family Medicine, and it is funded to support training slots in all three disciplines. It is led by Drs. Steven Shea (General Medicine), Melissa Stockwell (General Pediatrics), and Richard Young (Family Medicine).
