Welcome to the site for the Division of General Internal Medicine located on the University of Florida College of Medicine-Jacksonville campus. Our division provides professional services to Shands Jacksonville, a tertiary care teaching hospital serving Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia.

Members of our division provide continuous care for internal medicine patients, both inpatient and outpatient. Our faculty physicians play an integral role in the instruction of residents in the categorical, ACGME-accredited internal medicine residency program as well as medical students from the UF College of Medicine.

One unique clinical program in the Division of General Internal Medicine is JAXHATS, a medical home for adolescents and youth with special health care needs. This is a joint program with the Division of Community Pediatrics.

The information contained on these pages is designed to provide a comprehensive view of our division and contact information to answer any additional questions. Thank you for your interest in our division.
