Combined Internal Medicine & Pediatrics

The Division of Combined Internal Medicine and Pediatrics (Med-Peds) was established in 2015 as a collaborative between the departments of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. Our faculty, dual-trained in both specialties, are committed to advancing clinical care, education, and scholarly work across both disciplines, with a focus on improving health care delivery throughout the lifespan.
