Clinical Care

"One of the essential qualities of the clinician is interest in humanity, for the secret of the care for the patient is in caring for the patient."

Frances Weld Peabody
The Care of the Patient
JAMA 88:877, 1927

Clinical care is provided at the five hospitals affiliated with our training program: University of Colorado Hospital; Veterans Affairs Medical Center; Denver Health Medical Center; Rose Medical Center and Presbyterian/St. Luke's Hospital. Active hospitalist programs that play key roles in our patient care and educational programs are operational and being expanded at each of these five core hospitals. Experiences at these centers ensure exposure to diverse clinical challenges, patient populations and practice settings.

At present, the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry and Public Health are all located on our new campus. The University Hospital, the Children's Hospital, a seven-story ambulatory care center, a designated Lions Eye Center, the Barbara Davis Childhood Diabetes Center, the Native American Center, and several research towers are all thriving on the new campus. The Veterans Administration has purchased substantial property on this campus.
