GERIATRIC MEDICINE FACULTY

The John A. Burns School of Medicine provides all of its clinical instruction in a number of strongly-affiliated community hospitals and outpatient clinics, including Kuakini Medical Center, the home of the Department of Geriatric Medicine. Faculty from other departments of the medical school are actively involved in the geriatrics clinical, research, and teaching programs. Trainees include students from the medical school and other health professions schools, residents, fellows, and continuing education participants from the community.

Below is a list of the faculty in the department. Core faculty are all geriatricians with a primary appointment in Geriatric Medicine. All of the core faculty are integrally involved in the training of medical students, residents and fellows. Associate faculty include physicians from a variety of disciplines (Geriatric Medicine, Geriatric Psychiatry, Neurology, Cardiology, Epidemiology), and doctoral level faculty (Gerontology, Public Health, Social Work, Sociology, Nursing, Law, Audiology, Dentistry and Statistics). Some of the Associate faculty have their primary appointments in other departments of the medical school, or in other schools at the University of Hawaii.

The program has 28 core faculty, and 26 associate faculty (18 physicians, 8 doctoral level).
