M E E T O U R Hospital Medicine TeamHospitalists specialize in providing comprehensive, high-quality medical care to hospitalized patients.

Thompson’s team of hospitalists are board certified specialists who were chosen for their excellent skill sets and experience in treating acutely ill patients. They are experts in stroke care as well as in handling heart conditions and critical care management.

Because hospitalists provide around-the-clock care, they can rapidly respond to your needs and closely

monitor your progress, quickly adjusting treatment as needed.

More than one of these specialists – which includes physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants – may care for you during your hospital stay. The hospitalist team will work closely with your primary care physician to ensure the highest quality of care is tailored specifically to fit your unique needs.
